We ROCK as parents!

by Bryan Comer

Sarah’s folks have been nervous that the Wii my sister in law found in California was a knock off. After all, it was at a kiosk…and she had to pay cash. I understand. So as concerned parents we…plugged that sucker in and…tested it.

dkcabinetgraphics.jpgIT ROCKS! We had a blast. We will be playing bunches of games with or without Jack. The interactive controls are amazing. And you can download old Nintendo games. Donkey Kong…Mario…yeah baby.

Are we bad parents? Would you play your child’s Christmas gift? Please let me know…not that we will stop, but it’s nice to know.

    I buy books “for Dara” all the time. Even though she won’t be able to read them till she’s 6 or 10 or 14… I would so bust out the Wii.

    Of course the Wii had to be ‘tested’. When we get the boys their’s it will be throughly pre-tested and magically come with games for Mom and Dad.
