Sharing

Yesterday was a particularly hard day. Alaina was wonderful but Braelyn was a stinker face, again. I keep a journal for the girls and as I finished writing in Braelyn's last night I felt the need to read it to Bret. He laughed, a lot. So I thought I would share a glimpse into my life from Braelyn's journal entry last night, enjoy.

So, is the whole naughtiness a phase? Please say its a phase! You are so naughty! You turn off the computer while I'm working, you play with the mouse and keyboard when I'm not using the computer, you rip books, you destroy my laundry piles, you get into the cupboards and pull the food out then walk around the house eating it then leave it somewhere when you're done, you play in the toilet, you unroll the toilet paper, you chew on the furniture polish bottle, you pull your sister's hair, you stand up in your high chair, you throw food off your highchair, you go through the trash, you throw things away that aren't supposed to be thrown away, you steal the toys Alaina's playing with, you knock everything off the table, you climb onto the table, you rip scriptures, you take the books off the bookshelf, you empty yours and Alaina's dresser drawers, you throw all the blankets off the bed, you climb onto your dresser, you rip Alaina's art off the walls, you spill water on the carpet, you empty the shoe basket and throw them all over your room, you take food out of the trash and off the floor and eat it, you take out all my pans, you take out all the Tupperware and you stick your finger up your nose- all the while you watch me watch you and smile. STINKER! Ah, when will it end? Needless to say, its been a long day. And, these are only the things you do at home (and not all the things you do). I wont mention the store, the park or the library. You are so lucky I love you."

Did I mention she does pretty much all of those things on a daily basis?
