Danny

Danny has decided to award us points based on our parental performance.  When he's angry at me he yells, "you don't have points!"
OK...
But sometimes I do things right and suddenly mommy has "lots of points!"

Recently Danny was being very affectionate and telling me how much he loved me and what a great mom I am (I like those rare days) and he said, "I'm sorry I hated you last week Mommy"
me too!


Reason

As I was driving Hunter to school last week, I suggested he should REALLY brush his teeth and hair EVERY morning.  He snickered a smile at me and said, "I don't want to."  And I replied, other kids won't want to be by you!  His reply, "my friends like me just fine the way I am."

So, I continued - "If you don't take care of yourself, you're going to turn into a pimply, ugly teenager!"

Hunter looked at me and groaned... (I'm ready for the smart remark here...)
"Why do you have to be so reasonable?"
