Zoe, Zoe, Zoe

Zoe's homework this afternoon was to go outside and play and then write about what she did, so the kids dug out their bikes and had a great time in the sun...a cool, sunny day, but still enjoyable. Emily rode the micro 2 wheeler for a bit and was very proud about that. This will be the Spring/Summer she learns to ride a 2 wheeler.

When Zoe came inside she asked to have some candy, but I told her no since it was too close to dinnertime. Then she asked for a lollipop...
Zoe: "Can I have a lollipop since I didn't have one when you told me I could?"
Me: "I didn't tell you you could have a lollipop. When did I tell you that?"
Zoe: "Last week!"
I just laughed. She can still be funny at age 9!

Why do they remember every word of promises about candy, movies, etc.. but "can't" remember things we want them to?

I like that homework assignment!

that's cute!

I totally agree with kris! My kids never forget a "good" promise I make to them.

Juan Carlos is turning 5 next week and it seems to be taking FOREVER for the day to actually arrive.

glad you are feeling better and that Spring is starting for you-it's fall here. not too fall-y though.

What a smartie to remember last week's promise!
