   I just want to be around to see her grow up , ahhh, I would love to say Im looking forward to our girly chats, her confiding in me, me organising her 21st ....but I know in reality , i have slamming doors "you don't understand ANYTHING" , and hours spent talking to "The love of her life " on the phone , while I wonder where my lovely little girl went , and just wishing for the day when she understands and appreciates all I did for her .
 Pessimistic ? me ? never ......

   Im rather pessimistic too. Janaya has already started slamming doors and telling me she hates me. 
 Im looking forward to having some grand-babies and hopefully seeing her get married. .... actually, thnking about this is scaring me! 
 We'll just stick to Jackson for now, Im looking forward to seeing him walk and crawl, and I cant wait till he starts talking and being cheeky

   i watched 'dazed and confused' last night for the first time.....i can't count the number of times i said to DH..'i don't want the kids to be teenagers!'   
but of course my kids will be angels and will tell me -  if they are going out and will always be home on time, when they start having sex, won't get drunk away from home and won't have parties in our house without our permission   
HAHAHAHAHAHA  yeah right!!!!!!!

   them calling you mum is cute til it turns into "muuuuuum , i wantttt thiiiissss " or " i hate you mum".
 Mind you, its lovely when they say "I love you mum, your as pretty as a bunny "

   I am not looking forward to the endless phone calls from girls that is for sure. Or the drinking either. 
I am looking forward to the sports the boys play, and spending time with them when they play. 
I am looking forward to Andrew's 21st as already at alomst 5 I have some photos to really embarrass him.

   I;m sooo looking forward to Jake playing soccer.  He starts in March.  He even had a uniform!  Cuuute!
 
 Am looking forward to the boys being able to play more together.  It's just starting now that they are old enough to play the same stuff and have the social ability to play together rather than alongside each other.  Today they were playing soccer and everytime Taine kicked the ball, jake would yell "good job Taine".  realy cute!
 
 I'm strangely looking forward to jake starting school.  I'm excited for him as he is soooo  ready (having just turned four) and everyday he is just loving learning new stuff - we got some books from the warehouse about dinosaur facts.  He's now quite the expert.
 
 As for Taine, I'm looking forward to finding his niche.  Jake has always been so sporty and taine isn't as into it.  He loves his music though and his trains, so I'm ?  wondering what he will "excel" in.  He has a lot more concentration than his brother.

   liz it sounds like your boys are like my 2....
 
jack has a high level of concentration and loves anything to do with music.  he loves his guitar and piano so i wonder if he'll make millions as a musician     he's also a big thomas fan 
 charli has the attention span of a blade of grass and can't sit still for 5mins!  she loves anything to do with being outside and loves to climb.  i can't wait to see what she will take an interest in

   I have visions: 
- of us as a family, going away on holidays, and not having to take a pram, nappies or a portacot!  
  
- of the kids playing at the same beach I did as a child. 
  
- of Rico and Jett play wrestling together, and with Dh

   I'm looking forward to no more night wakings and no nappies. I'm also looking forward to seeing what kind of people they will be. 
 
I'm also looking forward to them leaving home to travel the world and I get to go to new places visiting them
