Why I am certain my 4 year old has a lot of my family in him!

Grant: "Mama I really want that police toy."

Me: "I know buddy but you have not really been listening very well and little boys that don't listen very good don't get cool new stuff like that."

Grant: "What things do I have to do to be good?"

Me: "You need to listen when I ask you to do something. Also, you can't say no when I ask you to do something you don't want to do. Screaming and having a bad attitude is another thing you have to stop doing."

Grant: "Ok mama. I can do that."

Me: "One more thing. You have to stop being so bossy."

Grant: *long silence* "Ohhhh that's hard Mama. I don't think I can stop doing that."

Just an end note to this. When I tell either my mother or father this stuff about my son they both say "I wonder where he gets that from?" With the implication that it is me he gets it from. I just reply, "The same place I got it from."

Mom says, "Yeah, your father."

Dad says, "Yeah, your mother."

Can you tell they are divorced? LOL!
