Not all kids have mind control. I have 3 and only our middle girl can control my mind. I barely have the power to discipline her, what with her pouty eyes and all. My wife says I’m a wimp, but it’s her Jedi powers.

So this is why I don’t remember much of the first years of my children’s lives – mind control!. I must have had a double dose with twins! Haven’t read either book – really interested. :-)

Thank you Amy for Retweeting this!

I think my dogs are the Queens around here, though fortunately no mind control powers.

(Random Aside: I really want to read that Anne Jackson book.)

Beyond funny! Maybe I have my own emperor sneaking around here. That must be how my husband’s glasses got on top of my head causing him to search for a long time. I had no idea they were his. Then somehow his phone was in my pocket. It started ringing and it freaked me out. I could hear it, but couldn’t see it. Once again, I had no idea I had put it in my pocket. He, of course, thinks I’m crazy.

Too funny; I’m still giggling at you referring to your son as The Emperor. You remind me of back when I quit work to stay home with my first son – I tried to explain to my former work buddies that even though my salary wasn’t so hot, I really liked my new boss. Demanding, but cute.
Don’t worry about the mind control. In due time the tables will turn and you’ll have the power of being able to accurately predict the future: “If you two roughhouse like that, someone’s going to get hurt,” “If I let you stay up to watch that show, you’ll be cranky in the morning,” and so on. You may be seeing the first glimmerings of your future power soon. Keep us posted!
I’d love to win the Anne Jackson book! I’ve been enjoying her blog; she has a fresh voice.

Hi Sarah, my son is a 17-year old senior in high school and my daughter turns 14 in a couple of months. And from experience I can report that they still have this uncanny ability to control minds the older they get. Now, however, the “toys” and “food” are just a lot more expensive. Enjoy these early years :)

Girl! That is a great nickname for your son-will have to use it for my 19 month old boy! I am SO stoked about your giveaway. Both books look awesome, but the Fine Line one is right up my alley. I wrote a devo for She Seeks this week around this topic.

I tweeted the post (taggd you in it) and posted it on FB-you aren’t my friend, so I couldn’t tag you on that one, though.

So excited for your book launch!!!

Mind controlling little boys… :)

Ahh, I am a fan of Anne Jackson, but have yet to read her book.
