Who Is In Charge Here?

Can be found in the Category: Leadership - 19 Nov 2005

Having four children, (five including myself), it is often debated who is really the boss at our house. The kids have ruled Jill and me out, so that leave four possibilities.

If you talk to my youngest, he thinks that my oldest is boss. He has told me that we have to listen to Jonathan or else he will get mad and may…

My oldest says the second oldest is boss, she bosses him around and is a snit.

A snit.

Then the two girls go back and forth and excuse each other of being “bossy.” They also refer to each other as snits.

So who is boss?

The youngest of course. He puts us all in a spell, a kind of trance and we all wonder how he does it. He says, lets go get ice cream at Ben And Jerry’s. My wife averts her eyes from him as to not fall under this spell. It is too late for me.

I am chanting, “Yes, we have to go to Ben and Jerry’s, yes we have to go…..”

The charm of the youngest. He charms us all. He is really looking at me in this picture. :)

    Jen & Berry’s must go too!

    The youngest have a way of appealing to our inner child.

    I WANT A POPSICLE RIGHT NOW!

    Thank you Caillou.

    It is the little ones, the cute ones who have the power. It’s when they realize just how much power they have do they start becoming less cute and more annoying. Then we have to start squashing their little cutenesses, pouting lips, winking eyes….

    Guess I’ll be going for ice cream today. Katherine calls me “The Big Sucker.” sigh
