cookie

this morning after taking ella to school, bohdan spotted the snickerdoodles on the counter.  "i want cookie mamma!"  "no, bohdan, not now," i said.  after whining about it for a few minutes he comes over to me, pulls on my arms and says, "a hug, mamma, a hug."  how could i refuse that?!  so i gave him a hug and as i did he whispers, "i want cookie."  oh boy!

in the jungle...

this morning was rough!  nobody wanted to listen, there was whining, corinne changed about 3 times.  i was so frustrated by the time we all got in the car that i had to ask the kids' forgiveness.  they all started to sing "the lion sleeps tonight".  their moweemawops were all outta wack so i sang it for them a couple times and they all chimed in.  it was really sweet and totally diffused all the drama of the morning.  on our way from ella's school to corinne's, corinne started singing and bohdan pipes up, "no, no, like dis: mo-geen-a-gas".  just made me chuckle.
