Welcome to the Carter blog. There once were 5 of us, then we grew to 11, then 14 for a short period and now are about to be 12. Some may say we are actually ONE EGG SHORT OF A DOZEN for choosing to have a large family. We hurt and cry and sometimes yell but then again we laugh, forgive, and have fun much more! We call ourselves FAMILY. Join us on the adventures we seem to fall into on our adoption journeys and family life. You never know what you will find!

Is That Your Telephone Number?
Believe it or not, Duane and I are taking parenting classes on Wed. night. (There is always something you can learn). We were having a discussion about supervising kids on TV and internet and one lady asks, "those are good suggestions, how old are your children?"
Well, I rattled off, 16,16,16,15,12,7,6,6,2 and she sat there dumbfounded and without really missing a beat, she said, "Is that your phone number?" Duane, laughingly shot back, yeah, with the area code.
The whole class burst out laughing.
I highly recommend this book and finding a class near you if you can find one.
The book is "Changing Destructive Adolescent Behavior" by Ralph Fry, Susan Johnson and Pete Melendez. And marketed under Parent Project Inc.
