Went shopping on Saturday.
with 4 kids
2 - 11 year olds
1 - 10 year
1 - 8 year old
2 were girls
2 were boys
2 were mine
2 belong to my friend who also dared go shopping with 4 kids
"I warn you, I don't want any fighting!"
"I want you to behave like little angels!"
"no begging for toys, you just had Christmas and your birthday. We are still not able to find your bedroom floor!"
"yes, you can spend your birthday money"
"leave your sister alone."
"leave your brother alone"
SMILE, those are your two. Mine are quiet at the moment
thanks goodness for mp3 players and handheld video games
"I told you to eat breakfast"
"no, don't spend all your money in one spot, you might find something you like at the next store"
"No, you'll only eat one slice of pizza. No, you have been sick, you will never eat two."
"full already?! and you have hardly touched your ONE slice of pizza"
"ok guys, we've been to the game stores now let the girls shop for clothes"
"yes, ice cream for everyone" AH, the power of food, atleast it keeps the mouth busy
Money is all spent. Time to go home.
Friend's conversation with husband, "were they good?" "yes, wow, yes they were!"
Friend to me, 'they were good, weren't they!?"
"yes, wow, yes they were!"
"Mom, were we good today?"
"Yes, hon, you were a perfect little angels!"
WOW! That was fun.
should we ever tempt fate again?
hmmmmm,
