the disciplinarian

Perhaps it would be more effective if I could learn to say "no" without laughing.

Thank you again and again for allowing all of us into your life. I get the wonderful opportunity to think about my kids (26 and 22) and thier individualism at Clara's age. You bring tears of laughter and joy to my heart and eyes with each posting. OK, OK aren't you two ready for another date night?

What a crack up! Sawyer used to shake his head so sweetly and obey. His bottom lip even quivered when Scott said no. Now he just looks me in the eye as he continues to remove the food from his tray piece by piece and drop it on the floor. So much for the age of innocence.
