I find this funny, Tim & I chose not to have any children either (Monster children are not my style) and I've been "warned" by many not to tell people how to rasie children if you have none that you are raising yourself.

Yoshi had never been around young children before, so I guess this was a learning experience for all of us.

Footnote: After cleaning up we discovered a few Christmas ornaments broken and shoved under the couch & bed. Good thing we found this before the cats! I know this wasn't the doing of the cats, our tree is decorated and the bottom 3 branches are NOT!! So it had to come from a taller person - child.

I like that My House, My Rules.....think that will be in place for the future. Most of our friends & family already know the few rules that we have and adhear to them, guess when my young guests come over we will have to reinstate them!! Luckily we don't have very many friends with young children!
