I think the thing is that Emmett knows *we* all know him. And if I were him, I wouldn't be happy that got shared at all.

SIL had BIG issues with the m&m bribery, but she was so sick of laundry, and the thing is? D is (and was) goal oriented, as long as the goal is something HE wants. He could have given a shit (literally) about the ook of a diaper. Tyler obviously has other stuff going on.

See, a deadline makes it hard.
We had a deadline/school issue with CJ. A postcard from Mickey Mouse encouraging him seemed to be the last push he needed (one of his day care gals had been down at Disney and got the idea). And yes, he had heard this story and thinks it is kinda cute, so hopefully he is ok with me sharing.

OK, my left hand is a mess. Fan injury from last week: 2 bandaids still cause they were kinda deep and flappy. Scuffed knuckle from I don't know how, still healing. And I just slammed it into the armrest whirling to catch a falling tissue box.
Why I seem to single out certain body parts for torment, I don't know. While back, it was my right leg, sporting all sorts of bruises, charley horses in the pool and bent my toe wrong.

I am glad someone said something. The MOT (I think that;s what JZ came up with for her?), who I admit has no sense of boundaries whatsoever, mentioned my first period in the yearly Christmas letter. She thought she was sharing something about *her* experience being a mother, I guess. But everyone else was mortified on my behalf. I would be terrified if I had come of age in the era of the internet.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I don't think any of his schoolmates lurk here.
This is so not what I was trying to say.
Anyway, it wasn't that late, completely normative and in preschool. Just noting that boys tend to sort it out later than girls.
And neither was this, actually.

And not, say, something you potentially didn't want shared publicly? This. This is much closer to what I was trying to get across.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I've talked stopped talking about it. If you all stop talking about it then maybe the subject will be dropped.
