I have failed...

As a stay at home mom, I have a very high standard set for myself as a mom, and for my kids. I expect exceptional behavior, engaging conversation, and appropraite interaction and play. I have "centers" set up all over half of the family room to encourage different play. We have Little People for towns and imagination, dinosaurs, cars (with a road rug) a small table with crayons, pencils, paper, coloring books, and play-doh, and a closet full of games and jigsaw puzzles. I try to find time every morning and afternoon to get on the floor with the 3 boys and engage them. However, lately, when I set up the Little People town, which takes a lot longer now that Maddox has found the joy in knocking everything down, or set up the dinosaurs, or want to make cards for someone, all they want to do is play X-box or watch a movie. I should be grateful that a 27 inch box can entertain all of them for so long... But I'm not.
