My dance is basically lots of jumping and whooping and lots of oh yeahs!! Of course my dance is met with derision and the next game (there is always a next game) results in them saving up all pick up cards, skip cards for use against me... which of course makes my next victory dance all the sweeter!!! In our family we have never let a child win a game.... they know that when they do win they have done so fair & square. Draughts, Uno, Cheat, Poker whatever - if they win they win - oh and they all do a pretty mean victory dance themselves!!!Jolihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15214042966129071745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1495198733430494988.post-92103263802997130282010-07-09T10:20:19.113+10:002010-07-09T10:20:19.113+10:00Thanks for visiting me... my mum would always have...Thanks for visiting me... my mum would always have to tell me about losing rather than winning as I would never win piano competitions... she wrote me a poem in one of my birthday cards when I was about 8, something about 'if you can't be a tree be a shrub.. but be the best little shrub you can be' (wish I could remember it, it sounded a lot better than that!)<br />I laughed about the Trouble game but mainly because my sister once gave some kids a cheap, fake game of Trouble and it was called Don't Get Angry!!!!!Fourth Daughterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16289520392967828383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1495198733430494988.post-37770945928143067642010-07-09T08:31:04.428+10:002010-07-09T08:31:04.428+10:00Your Mum is a hoot!Your Mum is a hoot!brismodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18169335258762403261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1495198733430494988.post-35270164591816830912010-07-09T07:17:59.543+10:002010-07-09T07:17:59.543+10:00Oh poop.
