Yeah, “I love you” was fantastic, but this was better.
We were at the hotel a couple of days ago. I was tired and a little unnerved from the lack of sleep and stress over not having power, my overheated daughter, and my aching hips (yeah, my hips ACHE all of the time. I don’t know what my deal is. If you say “It’s because of your massive soda intake” I will find you. I will cut you). Casey’s ADHD meds hadn’t kicked in yet and he wasn’t listening to a thing I said. After the fifth time telling him to put on his shoes, I yelled, “CASEY! Put on your damn shoes!”
Without looking up he says in his deep, raspy voice,
“Don’t nag me, Mom, it’s been a loooooong day”
That is awesome!
THIS MADE MY DAY. Hi to Casey! -"Anonymous" (regular reader that disclosed on 6/22)
Awesome!
Did you laugh? I'd have laughed.
I have a six yr old autistic son …..we were having the shoe argument this morning……after the 100th time of asking nicely I yelled at him to put his bloody shoes on!…..he calmly called me a " bossy boiler"……Thomas the tank engine can "bite me!!".Just found your blog today and am so glad I did …..hello from Australia.Allison
