A week ago we were stopped at a stop light. It had been a long day and we were finally going home to get the boys down for naps. I looked back at Owen as he was giving in to his heavy eyelids. I asked him if he was tired just to keep him from falling asleep. He looked up just as a car honked. With his eyelids half shut he muttered...
"Mom, they beeping you!"
Sure enough...the light was green and I was being honked at.
A few days later we were going to Carter's baseball game. Carter and Alexis were fighting in the back seat...A NORM these past few weeks...and it's killing me. I had a busy day of games without Chad so I said to myself, "Amber, pick your battles today. This one isn't worth it!" So I kept my mouth shut and let them fight it out. They quit fighting within a few minutes. About 20 seconds after they quit fighting Owen comments.
"Mom, you spank their bums?"
To which I laughed and agreed it was a great idea. Carter's and Alexis' silence was ended with an eruption of laughter.
I think I should pick my battles more often.
