The girls out enjoying the neighbor's trampoline... a favorite pasttime!
So, the other day Teresa was being her rather toddlerish-self while demanding to be given the skewers from the drawer in the kitchen. I just said "no", shut the drawer, & walked away. Then...
Me: Well, just because you want something, doesn't mean you can always have it.
Rebecca: Teresa, remember what Daddy said the other day about the Rolling Stones?
Some parents get their bits of wisdom from books... we prefer song lyrics. ;)
This is great...and uncanny...I was at a friend's today and she threatened to sing this very song to her one year old, then explained she'd been singing it to her four year old for quite a while with effective results :0)
