Yes one last post. I've been a bit of a slacker lately (for me) and feel like I must do a load to redeem myself :)
a couple of funny things my kids say.
A couple of days ago at my mom's house I was really irritated with my kidlets cause they were being especially bad about listening. As I said Goobers name for the umpteenth time with GREAT irritation in my voice, I followed with "am I talking to the WALL?!?!" to this Goober replied. "No" then he turned to my mom and said "My mom is being kinda mean to me today" I about busted up laughing! I mean... wasn't the cause of my irritation the 5 yr old in front on me!?
Now this next one happens all the time. As Missy My is doing something she knows not to do I will count her "1.........2........3.....Time OUT!" quite often she will reply "No! Don't tell that to me!!" with a sassy expression on her little face.... (again.... what caused mom to do this? could it be the child in front of me!?) needless to say, she ends up hauled to time out anyways.
I know as time goes on I will be able to laugh more at that last one and not just get peeved. :P

Dude, I think I did three posts today, too. Trying to catch up... The other day Jakob told me he was being a jerk. I think he meant to call me a jerk, but I'm glad it came out the other way, because then it was funny instead of mean.
I'm so glad someone else's little girl is as sassy as mine has been lately. I HATE being talked back to. Yet it happens all day long. I put her in time out every time she does it, so she's in time out a LOT lately...
I swear to you that my kids learned to count strictly from the many times during the day that I used that counting to ten method to get control of my anger.
