Childless People Never Realize...

...just how interesting their stuff is to their friend's kids.  I, the childless one, always find it interesting at how much fun kids have exploring and manhandling the things in my house.  I also find it interesting at how uninhibited many kids are at exploring.

"Miss Lisa, can we play with that game that is on the top shelf of that cabinet in that back room? You know... the one behind that big bag of CANDY we found?"  I swear they are part sugar hounds...

Couches become jungle gyms, tables become chairs, banisters become dance poles and swings.  

I am not complaining. I am, however, surprised at how aware I am.  I am truly glad that these children feel at home in my home.
