So, I'm on my bedroom getting dressed for my day thinking I'm doing good to actually be up and functioning this morning after 2 nights of restless sleep, right. It's Friday, pay day, which means when Trianna comes then I get to go grocery shopping for the household (yeah....it comes in an d goes out within hours...the paycheck I mean!)
The kids are being good, sitting quietly watching Dragon Tales while waiting for Mama to get ready to take big brother to school. Only, it's too quiet. So naturally, being the mother that I am and knowing my children the way that I do, I hurry to finish up so I can get back to the other room.
About 5 minutes later, just as I'm finishing up, my little one (Jocelyn) comes in, "Mama, food! Mama Look food!" So I come down the hall only to find three little bandits, raiding my pantry and taking turns with who gets a bite of what! And of course, here's Kiki on top of an empty otter pop box, handing everyone a pretzel, one at a time of course (I'm sure she was trying to make sure they weren't eating too quickly, right?) Then she catches a glimpse of Mom out of the corner of her eye, throws her food, and runs to the recliner to sit down before I can tag her rear end for being naughty! I let it slide, without a spanking this time....
Then I go down the hall to go potty, and I hear the cupboards again, and the refrigerator door...they're doing it in teams now!! I rush down the hall to find Jocelyn and Ashlynn, just browsing the cupboards, and of course Kiki in her recliner with her hands in the air "what? what Mom? nothing.." She was right, she didn't have anything, because she left the milk cartoon sitting on the floor behind the recliner with a blanket around it....not over it, so I could see the top! I think they're trying to tell me it's time for breakfast and I've taken long enough to get dressed and take care of myself this morning. So if you see me around town today....don't ask about the hair day!!!
