You have in stitches. Oh how well do you describe the natural progression of parenting. I remember saying pre-kid... "my child will never do that", oh yeah right. Welcome to reality. Congrats on Nina's accomplishments and I hope you enjoy the retreat.

YAY!!! Sleep!!! I had to laugh, Alex was one of those 'good' kids and Wolf is ...um...Wolf. But now that I have a difficult child I am REALLY scornful of parents who let their kids rampage. (Nina wasn't rampaging, she was exploring. Huge difference.) I know how tough it is to get a wild child to behave. I carried my howler out of restaurants and movies. Abruptly left the mall and people's homes, and once abandoned a full grocery cart because Wolf was too horrible (even by grocery store standards) to wait in line with. Either my kid behaved in public or we went home. I didn't know what I was doing wrong or why my kid was such a stinker, but I wasn't about to let him ruin other people's movies and meals. So you just give yourself some snaps. You're a dynamite mom. ~LA
