I just asked Ellie if she would help me unload the dishwasher. She looked at me with an exasperated look and explained, "I've had a hard day mom. I'm just too sad."
Nice try sweetie! These would be the contents of Ellie's "hard" day:
8 am Wake up for the day, eat some breakfast, watch a show . . .
9:45 Leave for playgroup. Pay in the water, run around with her buddies, eat snacks, get naked. . .
11:40 Head home
12 pm Kenzie and Kade come over for lunch and bring McDonald's. Run around, scream, make a mess, spill bubbles all over the entire floor, slam a few doors, take every book out of the book shelf, lock Kade out of every room, get completely naked (AGAIN), play dress up, take a few bites of food, blow some bubbles in soda, jump on furniture, fight over shoes. . .
2:30 Kade and Kenzie leave. Take a nap.
5 pm Wake up. Go over to Natalie's next door and play some more. . .
6:30 Mom asks you to empty the dishwasher. Insist you've had a hard day and tell mom you're sad. Cry when this gets you put in time out for not doing your chores.
Now you're really sad.
