No, Five Things!


While getting into the car the other day, both kids were nit picking at me and at each other about Heaven-knows-what. Beth was asking for a toy while I was trying to buckle her in without pinching her skin. Elliott was poking her and rattling on about something. In general, it was a nicely chaotic moment trying to get somewhere by some specific time.

Beth kept saying, "Mommy, Mommy, get my toy!" I replied something like "Hold your horses, my hands can only do ONE thing right now!" Wonder what her reply was?

"No Mommy. FIVE things!"

arrggg! ...can you see the little exasperation mark above my comic-character face...Good thing she is cute and comes with a get-out-of-jail-FREE-for-the-rest-of-your-life card!

I told her today that if she hit Elliott one more time than she would go on time out. She looked at me and said "no five more times." TROUBLE!!!
