White Dog smiled at Zsofia. "She will learn."

Little Miss Diva Marie found herself learning about Time Out after ignoring Steve's three warnings to stop growling at Roman who was in the kitchen helping with post-breakfast cleanup. 

For his part, Roman kept his cool...and his manners. He did not protest until Steve left the kitchen and picked up Diva; he thought she was being rewarded. 

"Brother," Zso told him, "look at dad's face. Believe me, she is heading to Time Out. Give it 30 seconds and Diva will be crying to be let out...and dad will tell her she is in for five minutes unless she keeps talking sass then it will be ten. We have all been in THAT conversation."
