He asks a lot of "What year do you think x song came out?" and when I say "I don't know," he automatically pushes me "But what do you THINK?"<br><br>Now the 3 year old is imitating him. She told me the other day that something happened "recently -- in 2011." <br><br>I am tuning them out more and more, but don't really like that habit.

I have tried requesting a 10-minute break while we wait at the bus stop for my older child so I can savor the silence and regroup, but so far, not a lot of luck.

Jessie on the other hand talked incessantly and still shares lots about her life.<br><br>I love that the scanner is really a translation machine - only too accurate. These youngsters know it all.

This was the break I needed!<br><br>I know this is actually a serious matter but really, the scanner and the computer talking different languages? There is absolutely nothing more endearing than that. I hope you keep a copy of this blog in a journal so that when the time comes, you will be able to reread these jewels!<br><br>Your kids (and you) are amazing!!!<br><br>shabbat shalomNaomi Broudohttp://www.ketubahbynaomi.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-386351153805970839.post-1507341319507035732011-03-11T13:24:49.842-08:002011-03-11T13:24:49.842-08:00oh yes. i understand this -- the need for peace an...oh yes. i understand this -- the need for peace and an OFF button for the constant chatter. my older one is an internalizer (which brings its own issues) but my younger one is loud and constant. when i have peace breaks, i can appreciate the questions and entertain the noise. when i don't... i am an insane person.aimeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17007656886393098784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-386351153805970839.post-42030937712575849672011-03-11T11:03:04.816-08:002011-03-11T11:03:04.816-08:00That is just too cute.

That explains so much!<br><br>I'm glad you do get a break in the mornings.
