Haden seems to have an issue with spitting. For some reason spitting is the one thing he cannot resist doing. He gets time out, smacked on the hand, cups taken away, you name it. And every time he gets punished he acts like it's the first time it's ever happened. *sigh...*
It is kind of funny though, because it shows he's got guts. He knows what's coming, and sometimes he's openly defiant about his spitting. But you know a kid is an individual with guts when they look at you, think for a second, and do what they want anyway. Not that I'm promoting rebelliousness, but I'd much rather have a child who thinks for himself than a cookie cutter kid. :-)
Oh, the punishments will continue, and hopefully one day we won't have to scrub milk out of the carpet anymore, but until then I'll grin and bear it. :-)
