The rest of the weekend was a flip-flop between being the BESTEST COUSIN IN THE WHOLE WORLD...to being THE MEANEST PERSON IN THE WHOLE WORLD, and back again.
*sigh*...life is tough...especially when you hit your sister and you have to sit by yourself for a while.
* Sail by the stars * Photography, and daily ramblings from a redheaded woman *
i love the mix of being the best and the worst, all happening over a few minutes. i am pretty sure my nieces and nephews look at me that way.
ReplyDeleteI'm jealous. I miss those kids too much! Hey, will you be home in September? We're going to come to you!
ReplyDeleteAmanda-- I think you should definately blog about life with the munchkins more often. I find myself quoting, "BUT I AM"--a lot.
ReplyDeleteKatie--YES! I'll be back in Maine. When are you comming? For Bilbo's Birthday? YAY for visits!!!
Two words: Birth Control.
ReplyDeleteActually, Zina has always been the queen of puns. Her first joke was bi-lingual at the age of 20 months. Her hard boiled egg was quickly rolling across the table (propelled by Xan) and she says:
"Look, mom. It's a run-a-huevo"
Gotta love those kids. They certainly love you! thanks again.
Oh, yeah. Here's another Xanny on religion.
ReplyDeleteMe: Xanny, stop hitting your sister.
X: (Whack!)
Me: Xanny, I told you to stop hitting your sister.
X: (Punch!)
Me: Xanny, why are you hitting your sister even though I told you twice to stop?
X: I'm not 8 years old yet? I guess I am still learning right from wrong.
