When Mommy or Daddy tells you to do something...

"...you must do it."

This is a phrase that we have been repeating again and again to Owen in order for him to learn that he needs to listen to us. The other day, Jen was cleaning up in the kitchen and heard the following one-sided conversation between Owen and Jack while playing at the train table.

"Jack, when Owen tells you to do something...you must do it."

At least he is listening to what Mom and Dad are telling him, even though he isn't following our directions!!!
