I mean, if I'm holding him while he's crying, I get wet. I can't bear it. (And, really, with 6 kids, I'm no softie.) I love your idea of a b'day party. Around here, 7-year-olds get to invite 15 friends to Laser Tag (we're talking 300 dollars for a small child's b'day party, folks!) and my kids know that we can't compete.<BR/><BR/>And stop your d..n gloating about the potty training thing. I am an abject failure at all of that. Come on over to my blog and see. No, really, drop in anytime - I'm always around. We love guests. Just let us know you stopped by. <BR/><BR/>Oooh, I just thought that a Victorian-themed blog template would be so cool!
