Time out

So lately we've been trying a new time out where we put the offending object in time out. Today the offending object was the plastic baseball bat. (Why we even have this in the house I'm not sure.) Emmitt and the baseball bat had been hitting the fridge and Daddy had already put the bat in time out once. When Emmitt got the bat back he used it to tap the fridge, then he said sorry and took the bat back to time out where he told the bat "hit fridge, no no no". He was even shaking his finger at it! I guess he's understanding!  :-)
