My dad with my sis & I. Going out for New Year's Eve, maybe 1993? And this got me to thinking about another parenting tactic we Archuletas subscribe to, DO IT ANYWAY. When WHATEVER WORKS fails, DO IT ANYWAY.
Should young girls stay out late on New Year's? No, DO IT ANYWAY.
Are strapless dresses appropriate for said young girls? No, DO IT ANYWAY.
And, I am glad Dad did. He always played the carnival parent on our visits with him & it made for amazing memories Linds & I still smile about.
Matt & I try to work this in when we can. Like the other night at the latest Harry Potter flick. Did it give the boys nightmares? Yes, we did it anyway. Were the 4 Diet Coke refills & jumbo tub of popcorn excessive? Yes, we did it anyway.
Should I be blogging about parenting? No, BUT I AM DOING IT ANYWAY.
Diet coke, my kid drank diet coke....I would of gotten all 4 regular total sugerard cokes!!!
