"Did you have a good day today?" I asked Little Miss recently.
"No Mumma you screamed in the car." She replied.
"True, but you were screaming first, because you flipped your green sponge, you just had to bring with you?!!!, onto the floor of the car. I can't pick up things from the car floor when I am driving. And I cant turn around to look at your newly discovered skills in arranging your fingers in an unusual way. Just like I can't make food when I am driving, just like I cant make you pink milk when I am driving a vehicle along a busy road...You also need to learn that I am not the bin or the kitchen sink, so please stop handing me your rubbish, dirty tissues and your empty drinking cups..."
Deep sigh,
breathe,
keep moving
one
step
at
a
time...

And they don't grow out of it. Well mine haven't anyway. ;)
Wonderful! Yes, we've all been there....
I loved little miss's reply to your question....it made me smile.
Kids are very good at "relating the facts" to take the any negative situations away from them.
I was saying something important to Joseph today and he looked at my hands and told me my nails were too long.....so much for a serious conversation.
