You Ruined My Life!

This morning, I asked Paige to pick up her toys. She HATES to pick up toys and always wants help to pick up her messes even though she made the messes all by HERSELF. So this morning, I set the buzzer for 10 minutes and told her that she had to pick up the toys before she could have breakfast.

Without thinking, I made the mistake of turning on cartoons for her. She just sat there and watched instead of picking up the living room. So, I turned the television off.

She starts crying and screaming and then turns to me and says,

"You RUINED my LIFE!"

I was so mad but Joseph reminded me that she is only 3 years old and that she doesn't know what she is saying. Now, I am able to laugh about it.......although, I don't look forward to the TEENAGE years if this attitude has already started at 3!

I hear you there! Even Evie's got attitude and I'm sure I'll hear that soon!

I'm just waiting for Tayson to say something like that to me. He's not even three yet and boy does he have attitude. I'm hoping he will grow out of it before the teenage years. Not like that is going to happen but a girl can hope!

Girls are SO dramatic! You might as well get used to it now.....Emily is definitely the top drama queen for sure. :)
