Telling them "Oh look honey, you rolled a 6"(when really they rolled a 2) "Yay you win!! Game is over, you win, Mommy loses. Now Mommy is going to get back to her television shows!" <br /><br />But a year passes, they are now 5 years old, and you sit down prepared to "let them win". Only they find the matching dolphins, frogs, and apples all on their own, you haven't helped a bit, and in the process you realize not only have you lost a game, but you have officially lost your memory! <br /><br />Don't feel bad MOV, I would only worry if you start forgetting what time Target opens and closes ;) Dolphins?
