So many moms asked me about the f*ing fours, that I ended up writing a long post about it here: http://theeclecticmom.blogspot.com/2009/05/natural-and-logical-consequences_21.html.<br /><br />I'm glad my youngest is past that!<br />CamilleEclectic Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02597025645225619813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13853470.post-88581220236479270032009-08-23T20:17:12.628-05:002009-08-23T20:17:12.628-05:00Yikes. *My* bean turns four this fall.

My son will be four next month and I must say there has been a HUGE change in his beahvior recently. I don't know what I'm doing wrong or if the summer has been too long...He begins pre-school in two weeks, so I am hoping this is the change we all need. <br /><br />Thank you for making me Theta Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04841965283594674300noreply@blogger.com
