Little kids be CRAZY!

Before you stop to judge me over what you're about to read, I actually do in fact watch my kids. ;) As parents we all have those days were we fall down, make mistakes, lose track of why we walked in a room, yell at the wrong kid, use the wrong kids name and miss little things like I did today. So with that said, "His grace is sufficient for me", and I'll dust myself off and be watching this little one like a hawk, because she gets into WAY more mischief then our other two darlings. Okay! I just have to ask...why do little's have to put EVERYTHING in their mouths??? I know scholars say it's because that's how they learn. However, some part of me believes our kids do it out of shear fear factor to torture us! I think the little's have a plot to see how far they can push Mom and Dad before they absolutely f-r-e-a-k out!! LOL!  I mean take little #2 for example. At 16 months we decided to take a trip to the Adventure Science Center in Nashville. T
