Mr. EK and I have a code word ...That is too funny! Mr. EK and I have a code word for when one of us is losing it with the kids and deteriorating into something unproductive (such as the time I was going on no sleep and son #2 was mad at me and called me a "hot dog head" and I retorted back with "Well you're a hamburger face" and it went downhill from there :-)). Currently we say "Frog" and then the parent who is losing it puts themselves in "time out" for a few minutes to calm down. We have had to change the word over the years as the kids have caught on. We try to pick random words that they won't pick up right away. We discovered that our oldest had figured out our very first code word ("Taco") once when Mr. EK and I were arguing, and son #1 interrupted with "Um, Taco guys - I think you need a time out". He was 4 at the time!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9620911.post-1152079279953742582006-07-05T02:01:00.000-04:002006-07-05T02:01:00.000-04:00Hey, Randi, your message says it came in at 1:58, ...Hey, Randi, your message says it came in at 1:58, but the clock on my computer says it's now 1:56.<BR/>Lady...you're ahead of your time!
