To all parents!!!!!

Something I was thinking about the other day as I listened to someone in my office blather on and on about their child....just because someone tells a cute story about their kid, doesn't automatically mean that you have to tell one about yours. Sometimes it's just good to listen!!

I see it way too often...someone tells a friend something cute that their child did. Before they can even finish, you can see the other person formulating their kid story(not even listening). The entire process just turns into one boring story after another....with no one really listening.

....and please don't get me started on folks telling stories about their damn dog.

That's why I limit my stories to about 3 a year....because I know no one is listening anyway!!

This coming, as you know, from a proud single parent!!
