It'll grow back, right?<BR/><BR/><B>SherE1:</B> Daddy says, "Everyone shut up!"<BR/><BR/><B>TentCamper:</B> I totally agree-- I've just about said as much to my son, though I don't really want to encourage him. You gotta make me BELIEVE it, you gotta bring your A game.<BR/><BR/><B>Natalie:</B> Yeah, let them work it out with each other to a nice, consistent medium. At least it'll give you some time to catch up on your reading and stuff.<BR/><BR/><B>Shelle:</B> For every skill, there are always those who are naturally gifted.<BR/><BR/><B>Danielle:</B> Hey if that works, I can feed you some more good lines to freak him out. He'll think you're watching sports behind his back, and feel kind of proud but also hurt and confused. lol<BR/><BR/><B>Always Home and Uncool:</B> Everyone's gotta have a specialty-- you were a niche player. You could just be the 12th man they send in in an emergency. It worked for Vlade Divacs until his knees couldn't hold him up anymore. And he's flopping all the way to the bank!<BR/><BR/><B>Half-Past Kissin' Time:</B> Merci, mademoiselle. I won't admit to ever being that sibling.LiteralDanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16704368269389527451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5076041415469800377.post-55854384978540816382008-06-12T21:47:00.000-05:002008-06-12T21:47:00.000-05:00I love the parallel you've drawn here, Dan; pure g...I love the parallel you've drawn here, Dan; pure genius :) I've seen this time and time again between siblings.

She said: She hit me! She said: No, I didn't! She said: "She did! Here on my arm!" She said: "All I did was tell her not to touch that!" Who to believe.

Complete with, you know, duct tape to stave off the inevitable arguing. Should I be WORRIED that my two year old is aleady doing the "ow?" thing, too? This same kid can fall out of a window and be basically fine, but the 9 year old wants a bedtime kiss and the two year old acts like he cut off his arm.Korihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17523892197119604721noreply@blogger.com
