Reading minds
Mia: I want something to eat.
Me: Please.
Mia: Get me something to eat! Please.
Me: Do you want an orange or an apple?
Mia: No! I want you to get me something to eat.
Me: Well, I need you to tell me what you want?
Mia: I want that thing that we had last year.
Me, laughing: Could you be more specific?
Mia: Well, you know, that thing we had yesterday or something?
Me: That narrows it down. Could you tell me what the thing you are talking about could be?
Mia falling to the ground screaming: MOM! You never listen to me! GET ME SOMETHING TO EAT!!
I improvised, and pulling something out of my hat, got her a yogurt….and put sprinkles on it. The last time we had it with sprinkles was something like, last year.
She was all, “Yeah, that’s what I was talking about”.
Go Mom!
Rah, rah, rah, etc.
Add mind reading to my many talents.
I’m impressed by your mind reading skillz.
Oh, surely this is not the same angel that is in the ballet post?! That little girl looks much too innocent to scream for yogurt from days of yore…
when you master the art of being in 3 places at one time like was expected of me yesterday, please let me know how it’s done! (and my kids are adults!)
I just spit coffee all over my desk. THAT is an awesome mom trick!!!!
Hilarious!
Way to go, mom!
AHHH I remember those conversations!
Wait… didn’t we just have one of those in our kitchen this week!? And wait… wasn’t it with my 17 year old!??? LOL.
Good job Mom! I don’t think it ever ends either, I get it from the 14 year old almost as often as the 4 year old.
Wow, I’m impressed. I need me some skills like that.
