Casper
Oh, that's classic!
Why am I suddenly standing in the middle of this cornfield?
Mwah!
Dawn: I thought you were adequate. Giles: And the accolades keep pouring in. I'd best take my leave before my head swells any larger. Good night.
'First Date'
Natter 64: Yes, we still need you

“Not dead yet!”
He's a strict rule fellow and it frustrates him that she blatantly flouts rules. It almost brings him to tears.
Aw, poor noodle. Buck up, kiddo, it's not going to get any better.
Does conspiring work with him, Cash? Can you take him aside and say, "The only reason she keeps arguing is because she knows it makes you crazy, so if you stop, she probably will too."
Or is that just asking for hell on wheels?

Unfortunately, this. I tried to tell him to ignore her and he just gets more worked up.
We've ended with a truce over chocolate teddy grahams.
Or chocolate fucking teddy grahams.

Ah, the old "But that means she gets away with it!" conundrum. Poor ethical purists.

I have to share this entry into parenting history: Casper, with the sign she made on her door to keep us out. Note the skulls.
Awesome photo! I've never been able to get a photo of the death glare with my kids.

Tell them "Only Mommy talks that way." Although as much as Ari curses, I can't feature that working for them either. Although that is sort of what my mom did and I came to profanity comparatively late in life.

It's the center of the sign that makes it for me. "See this happy smiling pink girl full of love? Yeah. NO. YOU DO NOT GET THAT."
See, I though that was supposed to be flea as in "NO MOMMIES ALLOWED IN HERE!!!"
Either way, priceless.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
my parents used to tell me to ignore my brother. My issue was that they did so IN FRONT of him, therfore taking, in my child view, all the power away from the act.
that picture is made of awesome.
we made have found a new psych.

Also, good lord, the last time I saw Casper she was still just bundle sized, I think (at Nora and Tom's). Now she's doing a bang up impression of Nicholson in The Shining. How time flies.
