So, I left my purse at a friend's house where we had lunch today. I didn't realize until the kids were asleep for their naps... but I wasn't too worried. It does have my phone in it, but since I answer the phone - um never - this was not a big deal.
But just now I realized my book is in it too.
Now that is grounds to wake everyone up and drag 'em to the car! I HATE not having my book.
It's as bad as having my phone in the house with the ringer on.
***In answer to questions, the book is "Raising Your Child Not By Force But By Love." Disclaimer wise, I think he gets a little kooky and "the end of the world is coming" in some parts, but his basic principles I enjoy:
1. The Golden Rule
2. Have faith in the basic goodness of the individual (despite behavior).
3. Forgive without limit.
4. Repay anger and irrationality with kindness.
5. Be generous.

You're a girl after my own heart!
nothing about "duct taping them to a wall" when they're naughty?

I've been looking for a good one... I need to start reading before I completely ruin Benson!
