We saw a women at the store Tuesday night. It was almost 10 and she had 5 little girls with her at check out. (foster kids maybe? - ages were all really close, but not impossible I guess) Anyways, one kids was fullout temper tantrumming (totally not a word - I know!) on the floor and eveything for half an hour. this women was so calm and kind. She did not cave, she kept her cool and patience. I was quite impressed. All the while she respected this little girl and allowed her dignity. It was so well handled, I actually went up and told her. Let's all cheer each other on!
