Parenting

Things that will NOT quiet the wee-she-beast
on a cranky Sunday morning:
Snuggles in bed
Warm blankets
Kisses
Cuddles on the couch
Books
Songs
Fingerplays
Hugs
Tickles
Dolls
Cars--
Toys
Videos
Mom
Dad
Brother
Any form of touching
Calming music
Dancing (by anyone other than herself)

Things that WILL quiet the wee-she-beast:
Food*

*If the proper kind, offered at the proper moment, in the proper receptacle, in the proper chair, for the proper length of time, at proper intervals. Otherwise, all guarantees null and void.

Sheesh!

Oh, just you wait, she's just gearing up :) Have I mentioned that 4 year old girls are generally delightful? Even grumpy Elijah got better at 4...
Miss Zoey is awfully cute though :)
