How do I parent when are too cute
So, I spent the day at cubscout day camp. Quite a bit was outside. I am tired. I am in bed and typing a wee bit. I turn to the Captain and say (oh, so sweetly) " Can you please read her a story?" He read a long story. I hear him walking back to the room and I hear a whispered warning that someone is following him.
#4, (in her high fairy voice)" Mom - your turn."
Me,"what" (I was like, does she even know what your turn means?)
#4" Mom, your turn to read me story."
How the crap can I parent you #4? You make me want to squeeze your cheeks and tuck you in with me. ( I know that this is not an option. I learned this lesson the hard way. Number 2, we kind of let you get away with sleeping in our room when you were her age. It took mommy 2 YEARS to ween you back to your bed. -----Does anyone realize how long 2YEARS is for weening. Let's just say that it is ---to be literal---730 days. )
