She said if you have a choice between doing something therapeutic with your kids (therapy, exercises, karate, etc) and doing something fun and you can't do both, you should choose the fun.<br /><br />We made cookies today and I let the kids eat lots of dough. We also snuggled on the couch reading Danny's Lego magazine.Patty O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15598358666714482323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7572070976923021388.post-39956857643999088302010-06-06T06:29:31.812-07:002010-06-06T06:29:31.812-07:00This is a fabulous post, it's so easy for pare...This is a fabulous post, it's so easy for parents of children with 'labels' to forget to be parents.Aprilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08465360183823269614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7572070976923021388.post-8596355187439236912010-06-04T10:01:36.002-07:002010-06-04T10:01:36.002-07:00Fabulous ideas.
