Jack & Elise
These two sweet children are my nephew & niece. I am truly surprised that they survived the day yesterday. I think it began when Jack peed in the potty chair; Jack is potty trained and does not need the potty chair. In fact he was told to leave it alone. However he could not resist the temptation and did the deed. Elise, thinking that she was being helpful, took the cup out of the potty chair, carried it to her brother's room and dumped the contents onto his carpet. I give my sister credit, because at this point they would have been history. But no, she spanked said children and cleaned up urine. To further test her patience, the children did not like their dinner. To show their displeasure, they spit the food out of their mouths and onto the table. Needless to say, they were put to bed without dinner or a bath. My sister truly demonstrated extreme patience and control by not killing them. It is days like this that make it laughable when people comment on how easy it must be to be a stay at home Mom. It is rewarding to be with your children all day, but it is also tests every aspect of your character. Some days these little people are out to get us and some days they win. I congratulate my sister on winning yesterday, because in the end they went to bed hungry and she got some well deserved alone time!
