A Predicament

Sadie: "Mom, I am afraid of Disneyland. I am afraid the sea witch will cast a spell on me when she sees me. Dad told me if I don't bother the sea witch she won't bother me, but I am always bothering people!"

Is That a Fact?

Bethanie has been learning about the difference between fiction and non-fiction stories at school.
Yesterday she told me she was going to write a non-fiction story. She said the title would be, "I Have a Butt Crack".
At least she gets the concept.

Shake It Off

Sadie: "Mom, have you seen those weights that you shake? They are supposed to get rid of the shaky skin under your arm. You need to get one of those."

Partners In Crime

Today I walked in the bathroom just in time to see Brady dump about 3 gallons of water on the floor, including down the heating vent. Good times.
I reprimanded Brady and made sure he knew I was NOT happy with his choice. This kid has perfected the manipulation process already. He responded "Sorry, mom. I am sorry, mom. (Here is where he tilted his head down, rolled his eyes down to the left and gave me a perfect little frown.) I really dint mean to."
Sadie, who was standing behind him claiming she had nothing to do with it, chimed in, "Oh mom, how can you stay mad after that?"
