Heather from Domestic Extraordinaire July 18, 2009 at 12:06 am: I love this so much! Reminds me of the Cosby show when they would ask Olivia how things were with Denise and she would declare “She hasn’t killed me yet!”
Brittnie July 18, 2009 at 1:15 am: That’s HILARIOUS! Kids are hilarious.

I’m a nanny and the other day the 3 yr old said while we were driving, “Bertnie, I like Megan (an old babysitter who watched them very sporadically) better.” I said, “Ok, cool. How come Love?” She said, “Well, because I don’t like you when you put us (her and her 5 year old sister) in the fireplace.” I said, “Huh. Didn’t know I ever did that.” “You did,” She said. Showed me.

web blog December 7, 2010 at 7:48 am: I admire just what you have achieved in this article. I enjoy the piece in which you say you do this to be able to give back but I would certainly presume by all of the commentary that this is certainly on your side as well.
