Am I getting thru to him.......

You know as a parent of a boy you have to use different discipline tactics at times. So one that I use is counting to 3, it works but Isaac will wait to "3" to come to me or to listen. Well yesterday he was outside with his daddy & his dogs. All of a sudden Simon comes in laughing & says "you know what your son just did? He told Shug (our Rottweiler) to go outside". We have a doggy door from the garage to the backyard, so I guess he wanted him out. Well Shug was not listening to him so he proceeded to tell him again but this time in a stern voice and then he want on to say..... " 1 - 2- 3". Not sure what was going to happen on "3" but it sure was funny. So I guess I am affecting him, but I also need to make sure I am always loving because he is mimicking EVERYTHING.
