Madelyn Gosselin –

The television show, Jon and Kate + 8 is a guilty pleasure of mine. However, there is one 8 year-old annoyance that infuriates me every episode – Madelyn. Don't let this cute little face fool you:

...she is an absolute terror. She has a temper tantrums that would send me into a frenzy of suitable punishments like pairing socks or cleaning out the bathtub drain of soapy hair.

I am always amazed at Kate's patience with Madelyn despite her impatience with so many other things! God bless her and Jon, because if she were mine...that little bottom would have been sitting in time-out for over half her life!
