As preschoolers my kids both loved playing in the giant (doberman-sized) dog crate their grandparents had in the den. Makes a very cozy house with a soft blanket on the floor, and it’s easy to spy on what the adults are doing.

Congrats on the hate mail, you must be doing something right.

That involved remarkably little crying, and no laser level whatsoever.

It just involved me planning it out on graph paper, transferring everything to the wall with plumb bob, carpenter square, and pencil, and then drilling pilot holes.

For that to happen, I’d have to end this post with something about going to retrieve my baby from her crate.

… or poop. Never forget the poop.

ARGH, you put your child in a crate, and then write this! You people, with your Collage degrees, and fancy high tech computer thingies. And now children in a crate!

Wait, thats not right, Oh I am on the “Live Granades” blog, not the Live HANDgrandes. Whhops, I meant that hate mail for somebody else. Sorry.

Ps. Totally cute pictures, I KNOW my son will do strange things, that if other people saw would NOT understand. Of course I do feel that training dogs and raising a child are similar.

Congratulations on your hate mail, I hope my blogs gets some real hate mail soon.
