Lexie: When are you going to read us our bedtime story?
Me: Lexie, you have not done one thing I have asked without throwing a fit. You are fighting with your brother and sister. I don't know if I should tonight. You might have to go to bed without a story tonight.
Lexie: WHAT!? Why?
Me: Because you are pushing my buttons.
Masi comes walking in.
Masi: Mom, are you going to read to us?
Lexie: She doesn't know, Masi (sounding annoyed). We are pushing her buttons.
Masi: What buttons?
Lexie: You know, her buttons.
Masi: What buttons????
Lexie: Ugh. I don't know. She just made that up.
Masi: No, I don't think so. I bet she learned how to say that from her mom.
It's funny how I can be so annoyed one second and the next be silently laughing to myself thinking how cute my kids are. No matter how naughty they can be they are still very sweet and I love their innocence. I love how literal they take the things I say. They make me laugh and bring so much joy to my life. What would I ever do without my sweet babies??? I love them all so much!

You gotta love how kids think and make our life such an adventure every day. Lexi and Masi are too smart, that's funny! P.S. I love my hair.
