I had really bad parents.
Two people who should have run screaming in opposite directions when they met, yet married and had children.
And so I worry -- a lot -- about whether or not I am a good parent.
The Husband thinks I overthink parenting, and I should worry less because I am conscious of what would be the most natural path and I always do something entirely different.
Every now and then, I get a glimpse of who The Boy really is, and I am awed by the fact that I participated in that process.
Today he presented me with the storyboards for his game company, Scorpion Games, including how it leads into his game, Goat Frenzy.
I felt compelled to point out that we really don't have the resources to be a game company, and that we really don't know much about marketing.
The Boy rolled his eyes, heaved a big sigh, and explained, "It's my game, Mommy. I just want to do it. We can't just walk into Mega-Mart and sell it to people. It's for us."
Art for art's sake.
We've got to be doing something right.

Thank you. We will appreciate the help.
Right now he is playing Lego Star Wars 2 -- he says it is "research."
Tomorrow he is taking his Goat Frenzy stuff to school for show and tell -- first press conference?
I am trying to get him to wait until he has more than a storyline, but there is no slowing him down.
you have some kid there anne! genius seems a rather mild description of him.
