Cheese. One of the main themes of the museum is work hard and endure. There will come a time when she won't want to spend the day with her parents at a museum. Enjoy it while you can. <br /><br />I went to college with a lot of spoiled girls and the main difference between them and girls I liked was they were given everything they ever asked for and weren't familiar with work.melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12146892050711321072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2897710562041393560.post-53735176081332132102010-02-17T16:28:58.037-07:002010-02-17T16:28:58.037-07:00That picture of Bridget with the umbrella is so cu...That picture of Bridget with the umbrella is so cute! <br /><br />I don't have an answer to your question, but I think there's alot to be said for good discipline. If young children know that they have to listen to their parents, then they will still listen when they're older. I used to think that my brother and his wife were hard on their little girls, but now I see those teenage girls following the rules, all of the time, whether they are supervised or not, and I see that their parents were right. Clear expectations make a difference.Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02117368552826511378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2897710562041393560.post-38472762078371145282010-02-17T13:03:37.265-07:002010-02-17T13:03:37.265-07:00I like both of those ideas.I like both of those ideas.kenziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04846330318210365049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2897710562041393560.post-67194218162688173842010-02-17T11:06:43.297-07:002010-02-17T11:06:43.297-07:00As I look back on raising you kids, I wish I had h...As I look back on raising you kids, I wish I had had you more involved in service outside the home. Some friends in Cary had their kids do some service every day and they turned into very compassionate people who are always concerned for the welfare of others. Just a thought.<br />Looks like a fun trip.

My boys LOVED the mother's lounge! :-)Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05832602177068743447noreply@blogger.com
