Salem likes to climb all over the furniture much to my chagrin. If I had a dollar for every time I shouted any one of the following phrases, I'd be sitting pretty:
A. "Quit climbing on the back of the couch!"
B. "Quit jumping off the chairs!"
C. "Quit hanging from the table!"
D. "Stop walking on the couch in those cowboy boots!"
These commands are typically followed by a 3 minute time-out. 4 minutes for phrase 'D'.
This past weekend, in typical style, she was again hanging from the table. I turned and repeated phrase 'C' with much gusto. She swung her head around and said: "But mom I'm cute! I'm a cute little devil!"
Devil -- you got that right!

Talk to me...I love it when strange people give me advice on parenting.
