Hey froggies,
I am not in UK or Scotland but will respond because I do know how you feel! My daughter is beginning to understand cost of things but tends to forget 5 minutes later when she wants something different. As for getting ready to go anywhere.... she moves at her own pace and that is usually 15-20 minutes behind mine. Oh well, they are kids and somehow they think the whole world revolves around them. Some day hopefully they grow up and learn differently. Then we will know we did our job correctly.
