To all the kids out there that think your parents are trying to "keep you from having fun" or "being mean" when they tell you not to run or roughhouse in the house, that is not the case as evidenced in the photo below...



It is to keep you from getting hurt!! Last night Colin and his brother and sisters were upstairs running and playing a lot rowdier than they were supposed to when he tripped over a toy and face planted into his bed frame. I reminded all of my children this morning that when I tell them not to do something I am not trying to keep them from having fun but rather trying to keep them from getting hurt.
