Birthday Week

Boston is turning three this week (where has the past three years gone)?? This past week while we were on our way to Nick's last softball game for the season, Boston got in trouble for not listening to mom. His favorite things right now to play with right now are trains. He LOVES trains (especially Thomas the Train and friends). That has become my 'doing good' motivator. He knows that if he doesn't mind us that we'll take away one of two privileges ... movies (which he also loves) or his trains. Last week when I told him if he didn't mind and listen to what I said then I was going to have to take his trains away for the rest of the day and he wouldn't be able to play with him. His smart response to me ... "Mom, I am going to eat my trains so you can't take them away." Kids say the funniest things sometimes.
