When Did This Family Become Union?


I made a checklist for Daniel to help him with cleaning his room. Apparently he made a couple of adjustments to the list. The last one, in case you can't read 1st grader, is supposed to be "break."

I think all children belong to the "whiny union" where they are required to whine at least every minute while you are forcing them to clean up.

think its like finding the motivator of the week.

Right now to get Jocelyn out of bed in the morning I say " Ok lets race to the potty! I'm gonna win today! "

Been working every day for a few weeks now, when they breaks I'll have to come up with the next trick.

Before that for a few weeks I was doing " Come on we gotta go feed the potty, its starving! "

Before that it was something like picking her up and carrying her to the potty.

Before that it was interesting enough she did it herself. :)

Okay, so I will totally resist the urge to make any kind of political comment regarding unions and our chief of staff on this topic...but I could so easily.

I'll just say that Daniel is as witty as his mama! :-)

Your husband looks like he's about to lick his shoulder in your main blog photo...very disturbing. Can you Photoshop that down to a reasonable size so as not to scare small children? My 3 year-old cried when he saw the photo and kept saying, "It's gonna get me!"

i want to know why every thing has to get to the point that i end up yelling and then they go and do what i asked. wouldnt it just be easier on every one if they did what i asked when i asked nicely the first time.

Bruce, are you talking about children or democrats?

Apparently they think we aren't serious until the screaming starts...
