Quote from Ellie

We were at the Dr's office yesterday to pick up Ellie's immunization schedule which I needed to submit with our intent to homeschool form. There was a woman who had her 2 young children (probably around 3yo) with her and the children were continually misbehaving--kept running for the door, etc.

After we walked out, Ellie said, "You're a better mother than she is, mom. You discipline us and you'd never let us act like that."

Now, I'm not saying I am a better mom--you never know the underlying circumstances. But at least she appreciates being disciplined--at least until I am disciplining her. :-)
