Excuse me:

Friday night, Anna Kate and I were upstairs putting some clothes away and she looked at me and said “Mommy, you are a drama queen.” Seriously, my two-year old drama queen called ME a drama queen. Too Funny!

Another Anna Kate Classic
Saturday afternoon, Anna Kate was eating lunch and she had a cup of milk. She didn’t want to eat her sandwich but she did want to drink ALL of her milk. I allowed her to have the milk for most of lunch but I took it away to help persuade her to eat more of her sandwich. She didn’t want to sandwich so she asked to be excused and I said sure.

As she was getting down, she asked for her milk. I responded by saying, “no ma’am you didn’t eat your sandwich. You may get in your seat and eat your sandwich if you want your milk.” She then got in her seat took a small bit and then asked to me excused.

As she was getting down, she asked for her milk. I responded by saying, “no ma’am you didn’t eat your sandwich. You may get in your seat and eat your sandwich if you want your milk.” She then got in her seat took a small bit and then asked to me excused.

This happened two more times expect the last time when I said, “no ma’am you didn’t eat your sandwich. You may get in your seat and eat your sandwich if you want your milk.” She said in a very matter of fact manner “Mommy, you are wearing me out.”

It was so funny I had to walk outside and tell Jim. I had tears in my eyes, I was laughing so hard.

One more:
Anna Kate’s conversation with Jim when walking back to the house:
“I am going to ask her (mommy) for more crackers. She might say yes…isn’t that sweet.”
As they walk in the door she asks,” Mommy, can I have more crackers”.
I respond “Yes, you may. “
Anna Kate looks at Jim with a smile and says “She said yes.”
