On Friday I was at Target looking through the shirts and I could hear a mom on the other side of the wall talking to her child.
"You can make a choice from these three movies." she said.
I thought she was doing well, giving her child a choice and teaching him that he can't have everything at once.
The child whined and she said it again.
And again.
So I started to count.
Twenty-one times she said it.
Twenty-one times.
In Kristi land that child would have gotten the phrase twice and then the movies would have gone back on the shelf.

Did I really ask Nathan 21 times? WOW.
We have the three strikes your out rule in our house too.
Tell me once, Tell me twice.......
Ummmmmmmmmm yeah!
I live in Kristiland, too. If my children cried when we left the park (I always gave them a 5 minute warning and then a "one more time down the slide") I would tell them that we would not go the next day. Then, the next day I would drive to the park, stop, tell them I WAS going to take them to play but since they had cried yesterday about leaving we would not go this day. It worked.
Keithslady....ooooooh, that's good! Love that.
When I do run for president, my speeches will be short:
"I'm only going to tell you this one time."
Listen up, America!!
Could you do it all in just one commercial please, and one phone call, and one letter? These constant political updates are really too much.
I'd vote for you~
I don't know if I'd vote for you. You're a little too liberal for me.
Oh man. That poor mother must be exhausted from her child running the show. I about go crazy when I watch people parent like that. It's all I can do to bite my tongue!
