Thank you, Arthur. I imagine it must be difficult to try to make it so there's a good balance. I have actually tried to make sure that my little guys play and just relax often throughout the day. I have bought all organic foods to see if that helped and have also tried vitamins. I praised them when they are exercising, thinking that if they are physically fit they will have more energy.

But when I really would like to play (often the evenings) they are so tired or exhausted no matter what I do.

Also, in my first family their kids are grown and gone and I have yet to see the item needed to repair the hose; which, since I haven't done that, it prevents me from being able to repair other things as well. I really do feel that the store should restock more frequently -- at least some of the items in the store anyway. wink
