Back Talk

Here is Kaiya's latest back talk:

This happens nearly every time I ask her a question she does not want to answer:

Me: Kaiya, why have you been getting into Mama & Daddy's bed in the middle of the night?
Kaiya: Doesn't matter.

Me: Kaiya, when did you go potty in your pull-up - just now or while we were at church?
Kaiya: Doesn't matter.

Would "I plead the 5th" be less disrespectful?

The other night in Target:

We were getting ready to leave the store but Kaiya started throwing a fit about getting her jacket on. I gave her a warning, she continued the tantrum so we proceeded to the bathroom for discipline. After exiting the bathroom she disobeyed me again by climbing on the carts near the exit. I grabbed her hand and told her that when I said to come now it meant now, etc. She screams at me to "let go of her hand, ow that hurts me" and falls the floor. While on the floor having her second tantrum she pauses, looks up at me and says, "I've had enough!"

I'm thinking -- Yeah, me too! Anyway... we made our exit and after getting her into the car I had a good little laugh to myself. I suppose I should be encouraged. She is listening to some things that I say. :)
