Why is this my fault?

MissStephie, great minds work alike! LOL!
I often wish I had thought to take pictures of some of the weird things my children, grandchildren and dogs have done. Of course, ALL of them were his fault.

I've never laughed at a thread like this one. After last night with my 26 yr. old son I certainly need some laughs.
And despite all the frustrations that children bring us, it's when they run up to you when you get home from work and hug your leg with joy because you're home, or sit on your lap and think that you're just the best thing in the world (well it lasts for awhile!!), or the joy they give you as they grow and learn and become their own persons that make all of it so worthwhile.

One Mother's Day, when my grandson was about two or three, he was going to make coffee for his mom as his gift. It was an automatic coffee maker and he'd watched mom do it so he takes the filter, coffee and creamer and puts a LOT of each into the water compartment on the coffee maker. Luckily, Mom got wise to the quiet and checked up on him. Needless to say, coffee took a while that morning, but it made one of those wonderful memories. I sure do wish I had a photograph of that!!!
LOL :) :) J.

Yeah, I did something similar when I was young. When my mother caught me, I knew at that point I would be a track star some day. My mother was from Greece.When Grant Wood, the American painter of landscapes, was about five years old, his mother left the house for a short time during which he spilled a bottle of India ink when he was drawing on the floor. He was very fearful of what would happen when she came home. When she did, though, there were no recriminations. She cleaned up the mess and gave him a hug. It was at that moment, Wood said later, that he knew that he was going to be an artist.

When my oldest daughter was 2 years old, she would crap in the closet.Playing with baby powder is not bad compared to trying to potty train a two year old who thought it might be fun to use an empty shoebox instead of the training potty.
