My attempts to establish a pecking order have not always been successful. When Griffin has been misbehaving or "Going Postal" I have stooped down at his level looked him in the face and with a very stern voice said, "I am the mother, I am in charge." Much to my chagrin he opens his eyes wide, stares me back in the eyes and replies, "I am THE Griffin, I am in charge!"
Yesterday I had plans of leaving for Yogurt after getting kids ready for bed. I had told Griff 10 minutes earlier, "You are so Handsome." He replied earnestly, "I am so handsome." Sure enough as I was about to leave he begged to come. I said something like, you need to go to bed I can't bring you. He said, "But I am so Handsome." Who can argue with that logic? Off we went.

oh, this is too cute! I love the zippity do daw. so darling. I'm glad you have bit the bullet and started one of these things.
I love how all of your boys have there own distinct personality. Griffin really is SO much fun! And he looks the most like you with his beautiful eyes and his full lips. (PS... I haven't read any of the articles (yet) as reading hurts my eyes at this hour of the night)
I think Sarah is right, perhaps he looks most like you at that age. I don't know how you will manage to teach these guys humility when they are so dang attractive...Good luck! Mom
Griffin is the Handsomest little guy I know! He is as disasterous as he is Loving, and it is amazing that he marriest the traits with such Zest!
