I know that when my siblings and/or I did something like that, their first reaction was to get upset and punish, and it wasn't until years later that it became a funny story. My kids haven't done a heck of a lot (I guess because they didn't manage to escape my supervision often enough) but when they did, I would laugh at it right away, and make the girls help clean up. (Making them clean up was a much more effective lesson on why not to do it again than just getting yelled at. They still hate to clean up their messes!) You have to laugh, really.

I know, I know not funny. When I read your blog I couldn't help but laugh. Thank you for the demo you showed us that leaned over your shoulder, and thank you for the glowing laugh. I too went through many boy moments. My son is now 35 and he has a 7 year old son and guess what history repeats its self and you get to laugh a lot more watching the grand children. So enjoy those "glowing" moments you will have a lot more believe me! Kathay Lisa you do live a very fun filled life or should I say a glowing life. I know, I know not funny.
