Clever Boy

A conversation with Charlie yesterday afternoon -
Charlie: [whacks me with a toy banana]
Me: Charlie, you don’t hit Mommy.
Charlie: [preparing to hit me again with said banana...smiling]
Me: Charlie, I don’t think you want to test me.
Charlie: Will I get a spanking if I test you?
Me: Yes.
Charlie: Okay, I won’t test you.
Me: That's what I thought.

Eventually they all learn, "You don't mess with Mommy!"

Yeah, and we're not spankers, but the threat of a spanking is enough to get them to hype down.

Good luck with continued success on that one my dear. I hope it works forever. My kid...she caught on. But no worries, I just bust a tooth or two out and we are good to go.

PS - What's this twitter thing all about?
