This morning, like many mornings, Abby woke up early and came into our room. Jessica mumbled to me, “It’s too early, please put her back into her bed.” Abby told me she had to go pee-pee so we headed to the potty and she showed me the play scissors that she got for Christmas. I took them away from her and had her go to the bathroom. As I was putting her into the bed she said to me, “Daddy, can I have scissors in bed?” I told her, “No, we never have scissors in bed.” She then asked, “Never? Never, ever, ever, ever have scissors in the bed?”

Yeah – we pretty much don’t let her have any fun.
