I always have high hopes for the days I am off work. The kids have missed me all week -- in fact, the other morning Kaleb chucked a spoonful of oatmeal across the room when I told him I had to get ready for work. So you would think that they would be perfect angels, enjoying every wonderful moment of our time together. Negative. It was a terrible day. Kaleb cried incessantly from about 1:30 p.m. - 6:45 p.m. Kaiya did not nap and negotiated for an early bedtime instead of trying to nap. Not surprisingly, our evening ended with her being smart-mouthed with Tony and I. As I was tucking her into bed the conversation went like this:
Me: Why were you having such ugly words tonight?
Kaiya: Is because... I am sassy.
Me: Why were you being sassy tonight?
Kaiya: Is because... I am tired... and sleepy... and just a bit sassy.
At least she gets it. And I was quite proud of myself. I didn't even crack a smile when the "sassy" word came out of her mouth in that cute little ornery voice.

she never ceases to make me laugh..although I am sure it isnt quite so funny in the middle of it all. Praying you have a nap filled weekend!:)
Okay, I am sitting here laughing. I guess if I had been dealing with her sass all day it wouldn't be so funny. =)
