Mommy Says ...

It seems that every day I find myself saying things that, in context, are perfectly reasonable but yet I am still shocked by what I have said. I want to remember these moments! For example:

- Do not climb into the bath tub until I take your dress off.
- You are not allowed to go potty in the hallway.
- Do not hit your sister.
- Step away from the door.
- Only put things in the trash can - do not take things out. It is not a storage box.
- Do not eat grits with your hands - use a spoon.
- Why did you put your fork in your water glass? Do you see me doing that?

I hope to remember more of these comments I make every day.

cute idea and things to remember! I find myself saying things sometimes that I almost stop in the middle of and laugh. :-)

Victoria - a great idea to write these down. Unfortunately I don't remember many of these little things. But one of my favorite things I said to Bianka, when she was 5, was: "If you don't stop pitching a fit and go to sleep right NOW, I'm taking you back to the Magic Kingdom tomorrow!!"
