Every once in a while, as a mother, you see your hard work pay off.
You have actual evidence that something you have pounded into someone's head repeatedly actually SUNK IN!
And STAYED!
It's amazing when this happens!
Your heart swells with joy and pride, you almost can't contain yourself.
There is a feeling of satisfaction....
Of Accomplishment....
That maybe, just maybe, you are actually getting through sometimes, and all hope is not lost!
Well, tonight, it happened! Oh joyful day!
Sophie (the dog),(she counts as one of the children, right?), she actually LISTENED to me and CAME RIGHT WHEN I CALLED HER in her doggie class....yes, right in the middle of playing with all those other dogs, she stopped and came when I called!
I could have wagged my own tail....I was sooo pleased!!!
Now....if only this phenomenon could work with the human children...then maybe I would know I am accomplishing something.
Is it against the law to put a collar and leash on a kid?....

Dear Blogger,
Ever wonder what other bloggers are thinking? Curious about how your thoughts compare to other bloggers' views on topics like politics, parenting, and prestige?
I'm writing from Blogging Common, a research project at the Berkman Center for Internet & Society and Harvard University. We'd like to ask you to help us by joining a panel of active bloggers. Your involvement in this panel will help us answer important questions about the practices and opinions of bloggers around the globe.
What's in it for you? First access to our results, so you can see how you stack up to bloggers around the world. You'll also have the satisfaction of knowing you're part of an awesome research project at Harvard.
It takes ten minutes to answer our first set of questions. With your permission, we'll send you new short surveys on different topics several times over the next year. We promise not to share your personal information with anyone, and we'll do our best to make this exciting. To complete the survey, please visit the following link:
