Just the other day I hesitated when my daughter asked for something and then said yes.  My girlfriend who was over said she tries to say yes when she can because there are too many times as a parent when she has to say no.  Wow - what a great thing to keep in mind on a day to day basis.  She got this from "Kids are Worth it" a book I almost carried around with me but I didn't remember that usefull little policy even when she quoted it. \
