Working at Home

Working at home with kids

Yes, it cramps my style a little bit, but it is certainly better than when he’s standing next to me mad and yelling:

“Mommy, you poopy!

“I’m not going to be your best friend.”

“I don’t like you mommy! You a rock!

How in the world is all this coming from a kid who is not yet three? Third child for sure…

“I don’t like you, you’re a rock?”

I’m going to start using that one.

The Mayor threatens my friend and best friend status with him all the time. Oy.

I like the rock thing. Might be better to yell at horrible drivers than what I now yell.

We have my almost three year old in speech just waiting for the day he can talk to me in this way. When he called the guy who cut me off in traffic yesterday an ass, I was so proud.

I like the rock one too. Very creative. I might have to borrow that one!

I currently blame anything that my older son does that I don’t like on preschool. I mean my sweet innocent son could never come up with saying that he didn’t like me on his own!

Oh, a sleeping toddler is a blessed toddler. Magoo likes to fake-force-feed me when I’m busy. He holds out a cracker and says, “You eat it.” I say, “No.” He insists. I lean in for a bite. He snatches it away, shoves it in his own mouth and laughs hysterically. “Good. I can get some work done now.”

“No. You eat it,” he says as he holds out another cracker.

Don’t you love our little helpers?

It’s sad but all I see is “OMG! He’s ASLEEP! How did you do that?”

Obviously I have my priorities wrong. (as my child runs circles in her room instead of napping…)

I’m with Bossy; it’s only a matter of time until he says “You rock!”
