It was Aaron who could have earned an academy award for drama. It wasn't unusual for him to collapse onto the floor with gut-wrenching heartbreaking sobs as he faced the job of putting his Lego back in its box or picking up his shoes.\n\nFrom friends, I learned about an amazing secondary use for the egg timer. Rather than fight with my son, I'd show him the number of time-out minutes on the timer. The scene would go something like this: \"NOOOO! I WON'T DO ITTTT!!! AAAAUGHHHHHHHH!!!!\" and I'd say \"You know what, Aaron, perhaps a little time out would be a good thing\". I'd turn the timer to 5 minutes and show him the dial.\n\n\"AAAAAAAAAAuuuuGGGHHHHH...NO FAIRRR!\"\n\nMe: \"OK, let's add another 5 minutes.\"\n\nHim: \"WWWWAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!YOURE MEAN! I WONT DOOOOIIIITTT!\"\n\nMe: (calmly) \"Let's make that 15 minutes\". (This is so much easier than fighting!)\n\nAnd so it went. One day, he racked up a full half hour and went wailing off to do penance. I thought I could still hear him crying, but it was an odd sound and the door to his room was shut. Then, I saw a strange red blob of something at the bottom of the door. It was moving. He had wedged his lips under the door and was howling through his squashed lips which moved like two wet worms. He was determined I should hear him cry!\n\nYes, Aaron got the prize for dramatics and extra points as well for making me laugh 'til I cried!<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lynn&#8217;s Comments: Katie wasn&#8217;t the performer I made her (as Elizabeth) out to be.
