Ultimate Punishment

This afternoon the kids and I were playing outside when the kids decided to play a little make believe with Quinn as Mama, Greyson as Papa and me as the belligerent sister. After a couple of missteps, my 'parents' sent me to time-out. After several minutes of 'crying' in time-out I was barraged with additional punishments. When none of those seemed to work Greyson pulled out the big guns.

"If you don't behave you will lose your wine for the rest of the night."

I was a perfect angel from that moment on.

I love it!! Once when Zach was very young, he saw that Doug was cranky and said to him, "Daddy, you look like you could use a beer."

Oh yeah. That is serious. It would straighten me up VERY quickly. :-)

Nice! Kinley asked for a Vanilla latte on the way home from IKEA today! Can't wait until she asks for some wine!
