What was really said was "the terrible two DECADES." from 2 to 20.

Cute enough to keep you from killing her before she's able to provide you grandchildren. ;o)Damama Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00433392172815959276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30765699.post-36045850947050166552008-03-28T09:18:00.000-04:002008-03-28T09:18:00.000-04:00Great picture!

I can't find the blog now!<BR/>She paused after the toddler said no, and said toddler then did what mom asked. She says it doesn't work every time, but she's found that her blood pressure has gone down, and the kid really just likes saying no. Give The Pause a try. Can't hurt. Let her say no. Just look at her, or even look away. See what happens. Kinda like the Starbucks cup of no.Fleahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03412755038083750088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30765699.post-29564361904306197082008-03-26T11:41:00.000-04:002008-03-26T11:41:00.000-04:00I guess you can't give her the finger, right? *sig...I guess you can't give her the finger, right? *sigh*KGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10236206776336550381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30765699.post-48854529873662616482008-03-26T11:26:00.000-04:002008-03-26T11:26:00.000-04:00Oh, I think two has been living at our house recen...Oh, I think two has been living at our house recently.
