Imagine yourself slithering on the ground. You happen upon a snotty little 5 year old boy....
Actually I was just goofing around with the Flip and a strange little lens thingy that came off a toy flashlight or something. Holding it in front of the Flip lens it created a very cool faceted effect. ;

No, our rare breed is 'spirited' as defined in the book "Raising Your Spirited Child" by Mary Sheedy Kurcinka. ElectricMommy was doing some research on the internets, trying to find out if The Sprite's bossy, rowdy and explosive behavior was within the realm of normal toddlerdom, and found many a reference to the above mentioned book. It was clear after the first chapter that our little monster is a prototypical Spirited Child, displaying every trait that defines such character. Most of these traits are off the chart to the extreme. So what are these traits that make-up such a child?
