Getting Started
Little Miss Thing, age 8: “You started it. You always start it!”
Danger Monkey, age 11: “No I don’t!”
Me: “OK, kids, cut it out. The only thing worse than arguing is arguing about arguing. Trust me, you have better things to do with your time.”
(long pause)
DM: “But now you are arguing about arguing about arguing.”
Me: …
LMT: “I told you he always starts it.”

This is NOT a serious tome, but a fun look at the good parts of life, growth, and being taught many things by ones children by a very tall and talented Viking descendant. These insightful musings are the humorous gleanings of his rather popular blog, and those of us who have been parents or the children of a family will chortle with glee as we meander through this brief but very enjoyable book. I loved it once I got it back from another nameless Norwegian!
I was lucky to have won it in a Goodreads Giveaway.
