I’m THAT Parent

The other day, Nathan was trying to get Kaisa ready for church. I overheard this in the other room.
Nathan: Kaisa, please put on your shoes.
Kaisa: No!
Nathan: Do you want me to go get mommy?
Kaisa: Nooooooooooo!
Oh great. I’m THAT parent. You know, the one that’s mean…the one that the other parent is always using as a threat when the kids won’t do something…I swore I’d never be that parent! How did this happen?

Ha ha that’s funny! I don’t think its that bad of a thing to be THAT parent. I think its kinda funny. By the way I think you guys have way too many rules for your baby’s name. Good luck though. I think choosing a name that you both like is one of the hardest things to do. I voted for Harrison out of your choices though!

Ha ha! That’s hilarious. But I am sure at some point you have used Nathan as a threat:)

My parents switched off playing that role. Just hope that Nathan has threatening moments, too.

I am not sure why anyone has answered your question of how this happened. I didn’t want to be the one who had to break it to you so I am glad you found out this way.

It comes from being the oldest child of an oldest child of an oldest daughter!
Remember, firm but kind.
