You know when life gives you lemons and the proper thing to do would be to turn these lemons into a tall, refreshing, sweet glass of lemonade... well I have a confession, I have let those lemons ROT. I have been on a roller coaster of emotions as of late and therefore, have not posted. But today, Belle did something cute that made me giggle a bit. Think I'll share!
This morning, while eating breakfast, I was talking to the kids and said the word "ridiculous". Belle immediately yelled out, "MOM, DON'T SAY THAT BAD WORD!" (Sometimes, I think that Isabelle thinks that big, long words are bad words... I really don't know why!) I had to laugh and told her that it wasn't a bad word. That it was like being "silly". She tipped her head to the side and with deep concentration said, "Ohhhhhh." Later today, the kids and I were playing and I called Belle a "silly goose" and she quickly piped up with a girly smile and pretty voice, "I am a ridiculous, silly goose!" Sure enough, another moment I realize that kids listen to everything you say!!!
Aren't kids great for putting us in our place? She sounds like a real smartie. What a great mom to be actually playing with your kids.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe how smart kids can be! It blows my mind and really makes me watch what I do and say around them......sometimes. =)
