when i told one of my co-workers that i took away tv time from the kids last week, she thought i was being too harsh. then after i told her that tom wouldn't be able to watch tv either, she told me that if she were tom, she'd divorce me. she was kidding...i think.
but, still, i've been feeling a little bit like the bad guy lately, so today i tried to ease my guilty conscience by letting the kids have a backyardigans marathon ( not really marathon, but a few shows in a row - i'm not feeling that guilty ;) ) with blankets and pillows and snacks.
see, i'm really not that awful :)
