My eldest told me tonight that she should get to stay up later that her sister and fair enough we might start doing that come school time. She insisted however, that it should start now and since it was already 9pm - an hour past our normal-not-on-vacation bedtime I told her no-way. She was convinced she should stay up until 10pm!<BR/><BR/>My patience has been tested (and lost) so many times I sometimes wonder how I have not gone mad.Jeniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13100043209000589029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2845194771436706462.post-55025682958429401592008-07-16T16:15:00.000-05:002008-07-16T16:15:00.000-05:00p.s.

We said it many times, and look, we ended up with a theater minor and a research analysist. Who'd uv guessed it?! Uncle Gary's phrase was- "Calm down...c-a-l-m d-o-w-n." Isn't it amazing how they are born with personalities, no instructions, and we get to figure it out? I always say, "I'm a much better teacher than I was a mom." because my students will calm down for me but my kids wouldn't. Go figure!Mimi in the Midwesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05485368750787592981noreply@blogger.com
