This morning, when all my children were acting like two year olds, I took a time out. In my bedroom. With the door locked. I took Sammy with me of course. I received multiple threats and disparaging remarks. Some of the more memorable were:
- You're not being a good mom.
- I'm going to miss my bus and your going to get in trouble
- You're acting like a two year old, and it's not good.
- If you don't open the door right now, I'm not going to give you a mothers day present. (this was the most popular comment, I heard it about 10 times.)(this was particularly funny coming from Kind Madeline because Ryan had given her 5 dollars to buy a mothers day present at her school, and she spent only 1 dollar on my present so that she could keep the other four for herself.)

Laughing!!! To bad we don't live by each other then we could have taken a time out together yesterday and your kids could have watched mine.
ReplyDeleteCan't stop laughing! Maybe I do need some girls just so I can get these type of comments.
