Thanks for the tip! Must get one!!!

you waited 45 but how much longer would it have been? No telling! If I had things to do, then I would have left too..... but most likely you will end up waiting on Monday. I would see about a new doctor's office.

Yes,,,,,, it will take a little time.... but it will happen. We have a Weim! For the first 2 years or so, she stepped on our feet.... my kids would cry because it hurt so bad and would break their skin.... our Weim wasn't mindful of where she was stepping as a puppy.... she has now grown out of that phase..... she is extremely smart! and very protective of the kids and extremely sweet!!!! She makes us laugh all the time because she acts just like a person. We love her so much!

Yummy! What a wonderful way to spend the day!!!!

we make "ice" in plastic 2 liter bottles to use in ice chests. We have a coleman 5 day cooler..... it works for a couple of days.... 5 days in winter maybe! I've seen the battery operated tent ceiling fans.... i wonder if they work.... we enjoy our long handled campfire roasters. Great for marshmallows and hot dogs.

I stop and think.... "Did my parents feel this way when I started driving?" and then I tell myself....Nahhhhhh. Yes, I'm scared for my kids! I'm already fretting over it and we still have a couple of years til we are to that point.

Nothing would surprise me.... but glad it is pronounced Holly!

:grouphug: Praying.

hope it lasts....... but i have to question the mom who signed the consent form to allow it.... odd.

I would ignore his undesirable behavior... i know that is hard..... and I would strongly praise and reward all his good behavior. i remember that age, easier said then done.....what i do remember is i was so upset about the undesired behavior that when my kids showed good behavior i didn't praise it, because i was so exhausted.....

My 2 ds have tons of legos in plastic bins and they go thru them and share and make things.... once they've made something and want to keep it together, they put it in a safe place.... if they take it apart it becomes community property again. My ds's put their money together to buy sets.... they also will barter with each other if someone has something they would like to play with at the moment.. i let them work it out for the most part...... when they get grumpy i put a halt to lego playing until they can show they can get along.

:iagree:

i remember my mom letting me shave the summer i headed to camp... it was so nice to be able to go to camp with shaved legs...but looking back, who was really looking at my legs but me. i was 12.

all the nature shows get into this as it's all part of the process, so leaving it out just never really happens. i'm with the others..... when my kids were young they didn't really get it, so they didn't ask..... i didn't make a big deal about it, so it just went over their heads..... fast forward to yesterday, they were watching a nature show and it was very advanced, and quite interesting.... kids are 10 and 12,,,,, gee, they didn't ask questions, but i think they got it..... our big talk is coming sooooooon! anyone have any great books on mom's talking to their boys.... i think it's important to have open communication, just not quite sure how to approach it.

praying to continue our journey with a move to the farm life.....for now still stuck in the city ......
