The Rules

So for FHE last night, we decided it was high time we laid down some concrete rules in our house. I mean, we have rules, of course, but writing them down and putting them on the fridge makes them a lot more scary. Audrey and Parker helped come up with these, which will be obvious by the time you get to the bottom of the list.

1. Don't talk back.
2. No hitting or pushing.
3. Always say you're sorry.
4. Don't talk when grown-ups are talking.
5. No climbing on counters or furniture.
6. Don't answer the door.
7. Don't go out front alone.
8. If you make a mess, you clean it up.
9. Don't chew with your mouth open.
10. Don't throw anything except balls and guys.
11. Don't eat your boogers.
12. Eat your food.
13. Don't hang on doorknobs.
14. No digging in the flowerbeds.

A few of those were Parker's, with a little help, but our favorite of his, which, for now, we didn't feel was necessary to post, was "No smoking." Smart boy.
