I passed "Bedtime Stalling 101".
The scene: The girls' bedroom. Kate has been tucked in and I've left the room. I hear my name, "MOMMY, MOMMY!" I return to the room.
Kate: Mommy, I need some water
Me: No you don't baby. You just had some before you got in bed.
Kate: Well I need some cough medicine.
Me: No you don't. You aren't coughing anymore.
Kate: I need to blow my nose.
Me: No you don't. Your nose isn't running.
Kate: (laying back down) Well, I give up!
Awesome. Just...awesome.

ReplyDeleteHilarious - you could totally give Keith tips! (Andrew is the worst staller!)
ReplyDeleteHey Peggy! It (S.H.I.P) is a short summer program put on by crestline school. It's very fun - Olivia LOVED it. It's for 4 years old until 2nd grade!! I highly recommend it!
ReplyDeleteLove your last post - our kids try to sneak the same excuses by us! But we don't give in!

Blessings!
