-That mixing playdough and fish crackers doesn't work. Not EVEN if your intention was to give them something other than the playdough to eat.
-That a little boy who throws a MAJOR tantrum the night before....will most likely wake up with a tempurature in the morning. (which follows the pattern, back to school on Tuesday...sick by Friday)
-and, and, and...even if he's distrupting reading time with his screaming. It's best not to close the doors so that the others can enjoy the books, leaving said toddler alone, in the kitchen, with sissors. He WILL make little cuts in his jammies because he's pissed off. Oh yes he did.
-That if you make a new rule, each individual child will make sure the others are following it. and if they aren't will IMMEDIATELY let you know.
(this also applies to old rules)
-That I have failed miserably at any and all of my New Years resolutions already. I think I've showered 2 times. we've eaten take-out 3 times, I've actually gained weight and I've yet to work with the boys on their letters and sounds.
-Finally...that it's easier to sit here and type than it is to clean up breakfast and interact with my children.
