My wife and I went to the craft store yesterday and bought a shopping cart so full of stuff (colored cotton balls and pipe cleaners to popsicle sticks and finger paints) the cashier thought we were teachers and gave us a discount. Catherine now has her own supply closet in her playroom located in our basement...which we prefer to call: “The Way-Downstairs” (as an homage to “the way back” of the classic Country Squire Station Wagons that very few families were lucky enough to own in the 70’s).

Cross-Pollination: Parenting A lot Like Dog Training
“It’s not the dog’s fault... they need consistent exercise, discipline, and affection.”
“Your dog will mirror your energy and state of mind.”
“Calm and assertive. Calm and assertive.”
“After correction you need to follow through.”
Cesar Milan- The Dog Whisperer
Hmmmmmm....perhaps Cesar Milan's advise is just as congruent with parenting as The Super Nanny's.
