Out of the mouth of babes....aka Karmindy

Karmindy keeps our family on our toes. Everyday she keeps our family laughing. We often wonder where she comes up with these things.... There are two incidences that I need to record before I forget them.

1. I don't remember the specifics but Karmindy kept pestering me for something that she wanted and I kept telling her "no!" In one last effort to get what she wanted she replied, " But Mom, I thought we were best friends!"

2. Karmindy has been real pill when it comes to cleaning up her room. This girl can make the biggest messes but when it comes to cleaning them up, you would think she was dying or on her death bed. It's amazing the excuses she makes. To try and combat this little problem, I told her there would be no watching tv anymore in the mornings until her room was cleaned. I promised her that when she cleaned her room, that she would be able to watch cartoons before kindergarten. After breakfast, Karmindy headed to her room, she was in there for an hour! She tend to get distracted when she cleans, because she finds toys she hasn't played with for awhile and takes "breaks" to play. However, Every fifteen minutes or so I would call to her and ask how it was coming. She must have gotten sick of me asking because she came in holding a set of plastic keys and in a very sassy tone, said to me, " when I am done cleaning my room, I will ring these keys, but until my room is clean then I won't ring them!" I told her that was fine and she needed to get back to work. Hee hee. About 15 minutes later I heard her shaking her plastic toy keys, informing me that the task was complete. Heaven help me with this spit fire! On the plus side, her room got cleaned...it only took an hour and a half!
