I was lucky enough to have Caitlin, my niece, stay with me for a day. This girl is loaded with useful information that I'm betting her Mom doesn't know she knows.
Me: Olivia you need to clean your room.
Olivia: Whine, Whine, Whine (with a Capital W)
Caitlin: My Mom says if you hadn't spent all your time whining it would be clean by now.
Me: Please hurry Liv.
Olivia: Whine
Caitlin: My Mom says if you put it away in the first place your room wouldn't be so messy.
Me: Your almost done, just a couple more things.
Olivia: Whine. . .Isn't a couple just two?. . .Whine.
Caitlin: My Mom says a couple means until your done.
My conclusion is: I say all the same things Stephanie seems to say. So, my children should turn out as good as hers right?

Wow, why wasn't that post titled "Ode to Steph?" Love it. So good to hear your kids are good when they're away...wish it was always that way at home! Love you Kelly, and love that my kids love you!
But really, if you are looking for a true title, it would have to be "Good Kid."
I love it! Steph is amazing Mom, but you are too Kelly! I am sure Olivia acts jsut as good when she is away from you. You can send her down her to try it out if you want. ;)
All of those a such good questions. How do you get your kid to be good? It is fun to see everyone struggles and then there are those times that your kids make you look so darn good.
Love it
Can I borrow that girl for a while. We have a little more of the whining variety here than I would like.
