Life is Not Fair

I am just going to start out by saying that this blog post might seem a little whinny (but I hang out with a whinny 2 year old all day what do you expect). Life is not fair! Especially when it comes to grandparents. When I was growing up I so very badly wanted the game Hungry Hungry Hippos. I asked my parents for it numerous times and I never got it! Flash forward 25 years. I mention that I think Ben might like the game and my parents run out and buy it for him that day and give it to him for Christmas. We just mention something Ben might like and the grandparents get it for him. So not what they did for us!!!! As a daughter I think it isn't fair but as a parent I think it is great that he has such wonderful, loving grandparents that want to spoil him!

While we are on the subject. Growing up we had toys but not all that many. Really all the toys we had could fit in a couple of storage boxes under the bed and in the closet. Ben has a room full of toys and also a 18x20 playroom full of toys! Life is just not fair!

Here we are playing Hungry Hungry Hippos! At least I finally get to play it anytime I want!
