I got a little cut on my toe and so when Maddy asked, I told her what happened.  No big deal; when I was at the AKA meeting, I tripped and caught my toe on the chair.  The next day, I told Maddy I was going to another meeting and she said, "Be careful, Mommy."  I must have looked puzzled, (which I was) because she said, "Don't trip like you did at your last meeting!"
Too smart!!!

Yesterday, Maddy had a cold and I was bummed because I didn't want to miss MOPS.  Stephen generously stayed with her so I could attend and hear the speaker on discipline.  I came home pumped and rejuvenated, ready to try some new strategies and methods.
