Springtime Dos and Don'ts

DO sit in the sunshine and write in your journal and read shel silverstein poetry to the child.

DO cut the child's toenails a bit more often.

DON'T allow her to appear in public with them like this.

DON'T wear out the child so thoroughly that she falls asleep over her banana split at aspendos on a friday night.

DO think safety first.

Husband, THIS MEANS YOU!!

DO take the child out for posh ice cream served on a block of ice on a sunday afternoon while husband saws into concrete under the stairs with an angle grinder and dusts up the entire house beyond recognition.
