Do you love it?

Depending on Mckell's mood, Kambree can be her playmate or her worst enemy...sound familiar, any of you sisters?
I think I will post this idea in the "Friend"
If you want your two year old to sit through Family Home Evening, let her lick the brownie bowl clean!
Too bad, she had already had a bath!
An update on the boys:
Darin is playing Flag Football at the Jr. High. They don't play against other jr. high's, just scrimmage with each other. Which is fine with me, and it gives him something to do.
Braden is in 6th grade. He does well in school, so I don't have to get after him about homework, etc. He is going on his first Boy Scout overnighter this weekend.
Travis, is in 4th grade. He is my child that comes home and says, "Mom I don't have any homework, I finished it all." So I kindly tell him to get his homework folder and show me. Then I hear, "Oh yea, I forgot I had to do that."
Cade, is doing well in 2nd grade. I warned his teacher at the beginning of the year, not to expect him to say much. Which she says, "I am glad you told me, because I knew what to expect." But she is good for him and encourages him to speak up!
As for my darling Mckell...I have now become a "mean" mom. The first couple of weeks of school that is all I heard, "Mom you are so mean to me" ; "Mom why are you so mean". It was very comforting. She has seemed to calm down a bit. I am also being introduced to a girl's point of view at school. My boys never got in trouble for misbehaving, not following the rules. Well, two times now, Mckell has come home with "no stamp" in her folder, one for talking and the other for not listening....hmmmm....and I wanted girls!
Kambree, well all I'll say, is she is attached to my hip. She feels very wronged if she HAS to stay with dad, instead of go with me. But I am enjoying her, with no one else to interrupt our time together...except for dad.
