A rite of passage

It finally happened. Kaitlin had taken over the role as the dominant player of Xbox 360 games in the Stowers house hold. She kicks Jeremy around like he does not know how to play any games. Jeremy has already informed me that he OWNS me on the Xbox. Our favorite game, Star Wars Battlefront. Plenty of excitement and fun. The only funny thing...Kaitlin is bailing us out of trouble. I am so very happy to see Kaitlin enjoy playing strategy based games. Maybe this will be the same for all aspects of her life. Self-reliance, excited about the numerous fields of science, mathematics, and a love of languages. Kaitlin enjoys speaking French. I believe that Anita and I are doing some things right. Now if I can only get here to pick one profession that she likes. She wants to be an engineer like my father but she has mentioned wanting to be a lawyer. We'll see. Little Tyler is just around the corner. She loves to sit and watch us play. Tyler plays on the Playstation 1. Carrie is already a scholar. She is already ahead of her class mates. Her school wants her to skip grades. She does not have time to play games. She wants to be a Master Chef. Jeremy is planning on going into Computer Engineering. He has mentioned that he has interests in BioSystems Engineering. All I can see, Anita and I will continue to be poor for many years to come!
