I used to be a single mom of six. Now I'm a happily married mom of six. Add in our son-in-love, some bigger girls' boyfriends, lots of friends and family, and we've got a crew! We are faith-filled and fun, and we love BIG.

Manners manipulator
Several months ago I began really working with Landon on using his manners. He's done well, with only a few bobbles here and there. However, I'm getting the feeling that, at times, I'm being used.
This morning while he was eating his waffles:
Landon (asking carefully so as to get every word correctly): "May...I...have...chocolate...milk...please!"
Mom (obviously not in my right mind): "Why, yes you can! I'll give sweet boys anything they want when they ask so nicely!"
Landon (smiling devilishly): "May...I...have...chocolate...chip...COOKIES...please!"
Mom (staring at him for a second, amazed at his attempted ingenuity): "Um, NO! But nice try."
He began laughing hysterically.
I swear some days he is way smarter than me.
