Doesn't it just make you feel SOOOOOOOO GOOD about yourself?????<br /><br />I have had this very same day before. Many times, in fact. I was once asked to LEAVE the childrens section of a Barnes and Noble because my 2 year old was having a melt down. REALLY? The KIDS section of a book store???? I wasn't in the LIBRARY...or church! THEN...after asked to leave, the employee tells me, "you know...I give lectures on good parenting if you are interested."<br /><br />took all of God's grace in me to not throw the double stroller at her head.<br /><br />I cried the whole way home.<br /><br />hang in there.<br />these days are wonderful.....really...keep writing about them and then you can look back, and laugh.<br /><br />now...go get more coffee :-)Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15985522830610197074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2878287527359297488.post-72541223587806430612012-05-22T20:34:39.857-07:002012-05-22T20:34:39.857-07:00I agree with Sarah.

They're boys.<br /><br />Not to sound like that mother (because I know what an amazing momma you are and you know WAY more about parenting than I), but my coworker let me borrow her copy of The Wonder of Boys. It's an interesting and enlightening read about how boys ARE different than girls.<br /><br />You're doing great Nellie. :-) Sometimes all you can do is laugh!Mattiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16392740910552219687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2878287527359297488.post-73785797989715963992012-05-22T18:00:28.024-07:002012-05-22T18:00:28.024-07:00he needs twin brothershe needs twin brothersAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2878287527359297488.post-60550651125367263002012-05-22T16:56:10.430-07:002012-05-22T16:56:10.430-07:00I often tell my exasperated young mothers, "L...I often tell my exasperated young mothers, "Little boys are savages - it's normal for little boys to be savages."

Did that Mom who recommended the books and the parenting advice have a little boy? doubt it. <br /><br />little boys are nuts and should only be allowed to run wild in the backyard. Bringing them to places with other humans always end in disaster. <br /><br />Sorry friend!The Richardson'shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13635336518797178882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2878287527359297488.post-70597037641765490062012-05-22T14:43:59.377-07:002012-05-22T14:43:59.377-07:00That's why he needs a brother!! ;-PThat's why he needs a brother!! ;-PKelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07618654301891832463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2878287527359297488.post-17553549587479968172012-05-22T13:46:59.773-07:002012-05-22T13:46:59.773-07:00Poor Nell.
