Last week I let a few extra links up slide, but please do not link up unless you are linking up a PMM and please add the button to spread the word.
Some noise and commotion arose from the family room. Lucas and Alex were at it again- both equally guilty, both doing things back and forth.
Then suddenly Alex comes running in.
Alex: "Mom, Lucas is kicking me!"
Eric sarcastically replied: "Mom, Alex is breathing the same air as me."
Alex stopped in her tracks. "Dad, you tell the truth; you don't tell on people."
I think I snorted then asked: "So why do you?"
Alex: "Because Mom, because... because I.... because I am supposed to."
And that my friends is the the sort of things I deal with on a daily basis. Jealous?
P.S. This Tuesday the 31st will be Ten Things to Smile About for January! Spread the word and link up!!
What is your Proud Mommy Moment this week?
I love her stutter as she comes up with an answer!
ReplyDeleteso cute, ah the innocence of childhood!
ReplyDeleteSo funny! I just love the stories you tell about Alex. ;-) She and Buddy are so alike!
ReplyDeleteOh the tattling! My oldest is the worst about it. We've read books, watched shows about it, and still I can not convince him that it's only OK to tell if someone is in danger.
ReplyDeleteThe sibling back and forth, I am convinced goes on way too long for me!
Hilarious story!
That child has conviction! :) The truth must be told! :)
ReplyDeleteThe truth will set you free!
ReplyDeleteLOL this cracked me up! The things kids say.
ReplyDeleteYou SO caught her off guard with that question! lol
ReplyDeleteAhhh...kids logic...it's something else, ain't it?
ReplyDeleteYou gotta love kids . . . Otherwise they'd drive you crazy! :)
ReplyDeleteIf kids think they HAVE to tattle that sheds so much light as to why they constantly so it! Haha
ReplyDeleteI'm with MiMi. Love kid logic.
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah, tattling - erg. Punky has even started tattling on Flintstone. it begins.
Hahahha, I love how she stuttered in coming up with an answer for that last one!! Clearly, she wasn't expecting you to one-up her...heehee!
ReplyDeleteThat's hilarious! I love how she taught her Dad. Though it's so hard not to tattle!
ReplyDeleteThey will always find a way to justify what they do, lol!
ReplyDeleteKids.
ReplyDelete*shakes head*
Kids.

ReplyDeleteAhhhh sounds all too familiar. Lol
ReplyDeleteGotta love kids logic!!
ReplyDeleteso funny ... gotta love it!
ReplyDeleteYep! Kids are great!! Funny story!
ReplyDeleteOh yes...we go through this here too. *sigh*
ReplyDeletehahaha, kids are so funny!
ReplyDeleteSo funny … of course, it isn't my kid! : )
ReplyDeleteI've got to use that "breathing the same air as me" line sometime.
Oh yes, that breathing the same air thing is DEFINITELY worth tattling over. *insert sarcasm here* Can you tell that I may have heard that a time or two?
ReplyDeleteHa-ha, I love this!
