I don't really know if that is the proper way to spell laughter, but it was my attempt, anyway.<br/><br/>My wife and I have been married 31 years (anniversary next month), and we've seen and heard many screaming children. We've seen them up close and personal, too. Well, we learned quickly that our parents knew a thing or two about child rearing, so we took notes. It wasn't long until we began getting the yelling and screaming in check.<br/><br/>It's kind of funny now as we'll see or hear a kid expressing dissatisfaction about a situation, and we'll just say to each other "I know how to fix that!" We do understand, however, there are times when the little bundle of joy just needs some loving caring attention.<br/><br/>It's been a long time since visiting you blog, but I'm certainly glad to be here this morning.

It's good to know that they still cry when they get older and the boy isn't just whiny.<br/><br/>Sue - I wear earplugs at home when it gets bad! Both for the sake of my ears and my sanity. Elizabeth – Poor everyone when the screaming starts.

Lisa – Thanks! It’s good to know that they still cry when they get older and the boy isn’t just whiny.

It can be anything that is making that child cry. From being tired, hungry, not having what he wants or just because. My 4 yr. old will cry for just about anything so your child is pretty normal :)<br/><br/>Keep up the great work on your blog. I really enjoy it. Hello.
