 | best excuses of the week |
This week’s awards for Best Attempt to Get Out of Bedtime go to:
Abigail, for “Too many books…”
ME: Time for bed! Put down your book, turn out your lights, and go to sleep!
ABIGAIL: There are too many books on my bed. I’ll have to leave the lights on and read them.
…and to Owen, for “No thank you”
ME: Time for bed!
OWEN: No thanks.
ME: I don’t believe I asked whether you WANTED to go to bed.
OWEN: But if you had asked, I would have told you. I don’t. No thank you.
So funny. I love when they think they have a choice! Stella’s favorite is, “It’s my choice, mama.” Actually it’s not, kid. Get in bed.
But at least they have good words, right? That’s what I keep telling myself, anyway.
