HEY! NO FIGHTING IN THE BACK SEAT!

     One of the first times when my grandson's, Grant and Christian, came up to Marshalltown to stay the week-end, the trip up from Ankeny was a fun experience. My first mistake was having them both sitting in the back seat. 

      When we finally got to Marshalltown and for some reason our first stop was out by the Marshalltown shopping center.I pulled over and said to them with some authority that if they didn't arguing and bickering that I would let them out at the mall and they would have to figure out how to get back to Ankeny as they didn't know anyone in Marshalltown.

      Any child expert knows that was not the right approach, but, it did seem to work. At least it did for a while!
