I'm boring. It has to be said, and you can protest all you like, but fundamentally I like my routines and I'm finding my outlook is more serious and practical by the day.
This would be okay, but really I don't want to be that sort of parent, even though my nature flows against that. I want my children to think back to their childhood and remember fun and zany times. Only I'm not naturally fun nor zany. I don't have the imagination or the ideas.
Originally I was looking for a book, but Twiglett pointed out I'd probably be better off starting a thread to find out what daft/mad things you do with your kids that they love.
Teach me to be spontaneous (by helping me to plan spontenaeity very very carefully ).
Save my children from having a dull and predictable childhood. I want some magic.
Or am I a lost cause?
