Tag.....

The kids and I walk a lot during the summer all over town, good exercise and less gas. Well because we walk so much we came up with the game tag on our walks. The rules are you need to stay on the sidewalks, driveways are safe and if you step on the grass you are automatically it. Well on our way to school this morning we decided to play tag. All was going well until a couple blocks away from school....I suddenly realized that "C" and "E" were not laughing any more so I turn around and instead of "Gently" touching each other to be "it", they were full on swinging fists at each other! Needless to say I had to call an end to the game and pull them apart. Of course when I asked what was happening they both jumped in and at the same time said it was his/her fault. Trying to keep a straight face, and yes I laughed all the way home after I dropped the kids off, I reminded them we needed to be nice to each other and when we play tag we can not tag each other so hard! What a way to start the day.
