Focus on the positive-What good is happening?

BleuDaughter #2


BleuDaughter #2, when she was about 3 or 4, became very exasperated with her mother who had just admonished her for not getting her toys picked up. BD#2 drew herself up to her full height, placed her hands on her hips, stared at her mother and exclaimed,

"What do you think I am? S.P.L. stupid?!?"

We had to take a walk outside because we were stifling our reaction so hard that tears were streaming down our face at the humor of her trying to be indignant while attempting to spell "stupid" for whatever reason.

"Karate"
When he was about the same age, my son asked if could watch something on TV (forget what it was) and I said no, it's dinner time. He turns around, throws his arms in the air, walks into the couch and flops his torso on it exclaiming "My life is over!"

I had to go into the kitchen and laugh :)
