All things/plans with small children are subject to change.
That is one thing I have learned as a mom.
We did not end up going to church tonight.
Large Marge won out, I'm afraid.
Or maybe she lost...
I made the impossibly stupid mistake of compulsive gambling with my children.
Their poker face has proven to be so much more determined than mine.
I said to them, "If you don't... then you won't be going to church tonight."
It was foolproof.
Chris was getting off work at 6pm.
Either way, I was going to get to go to church.
Except that they did not do what I asked them to do, and Chris did NOT get off at 6pm.
It's 8:20 and he's still not home...
I hate having to follow through with those unpleasant things.
So here I sit, wishing I had not been a compulsive gambler - missing my friends.
WAHHHH!!!!
Seph - I am going to get that cd to you, come hell or highwater.

Way to stick to your word! I know it's hard. I'm so careful to only make threats I'm willing to see through. It's so important for them to know that you say what you mean and you WILL follow through.
So true, Wendy. Don't you think God laughs at our plans?
