I'm pretty sure...

...I'm the last one that should be giving parenting advice, but here goes.

1. Make sure your child eats a complete meal for dinner, ideally including something from each of the food groups. Joey's dinner tonight: cheese, apples and teddy grahams. I failed number 1.

2. Don't give in to your child's tantrums and be consistent with discipline. Again, I pretty much suck at this one. There's only so much crying I can take because he wants to watch "choo-choo" SO BADLY. So after about 18 mins of crying, I put Thomas on.

3. I'm not going to even attempt to give out anymore practical advice. Here's what it boils down to: love your children with all your heart and be grateful they're here. Not all people are as lucky to be blessed with a child and I don't forget for a minute what a gift from God my little guy is.
