Kids Say (or Write) the Darndest Things...


After a tiresome battle of the wills, I ended up putting my littlest one (pictured here with her little cousin, Jillie) in time-out awhile ago in a guest bedroom of our home that doesn't get too much use. Long after "time-out" was over, I discovered this note left on a desk that my Little Missy had written to herself while incarcerated:



In case you can't quite decipher past her scribbles and spelling, it says:
"Wow. My mom put me in time out for nothing. My mom didn't think very well on where she put me cuz I thought that she would put me in the office, then she told me to come in this room...and I can color in here."

I laughed right out loud when I read it. Do you see her smug little smile in the drawing? And all the gleeful-looking flowers and grass alongside her? She thought she really pulled one over on her not-so-smart-mom. Little stinker. Heaven help us when she becomes a teenager.

  6. Thanks everyone for your comments! Those of you that know her, know that she is pretty spunky and full of it. And yes, I have the original tucked away in my book of things that make me smile.

  9. Well, I didn't realize there were crayons and paper in that room! Apparently she'd stashed them away for just this kind of occasion!
