Rule #20

Rule #20:  Mommy does not like this sort of thing….

  • Mommy:  Thanks for putting your clothes in the hamper.
  • 4 yr old:  WHATEVER! 
  • Mommy:  Saying “Whatever” isn’t very nice.
  • 4 yr old:  Why not?
  • Mommy:  It means, “I don’t care about what you’re saying.”
  • 4 yr old:  But Mom, I DON’T care about what you’re saying.

Sigh.

Rule #15:  When you say, “I didn’t whack my brother. At least I’m pretty sure you weren’t looking,” it means you still get in trouble.

Rule #13

Rule #13:  Let’s not do this again….

  • 5:40pm:  Arrive at 3rd grader’s soccer practice  (10 minutes late because of previous drama at home)
  • 5:45pm:  3rd grader says, “Mommy, I have to go potty.” 
  • 5:50pm:  Drive to gas station to go potty; ask preschooler if he needs to go.  He says, “No.”
  • 5:55pm:  Arrive back at soccer practice.
  • 5:56pm:  Preschooler screams, “MOMMY, I HAVE TO GO POTTY REALLY, REALLY BAD!!!”

Nice.

Rule #10

Rule #10:  If you throw things at the computer monitor, Mommy will not let you watch Weird Al’s “White & Nerdy” on YouTube.

 

Should I be concerned that my 2 yr old wants to watch this over & over?
