Obama's First Broken Promise
Replies
We haven't really had any freak outs, let alone random ones. I have been scolded lately, however, for letting vulgar terms fly.
Also, our elder daughter picked our bedroom lock and barged in recently when we were, uh, in an immodest position. Six and she's picking locks. Luckily, she didn't see anything.
We had a similar conversation today. "Mommy, you can turn off your computer now! Barack Obama won!"
JTC, your daughter can pick locks at six?? Man, i'm totally impressed. I don't think i figured out the average internal hallway clasp until i was at least 11. And even then, all's i knew was the ten-cent-piece twist trick. I'm in awe.
I think there needs to be an Alternadad reality show. Because I think I might suck it up and watch TV if Elijah was on it.
Two nights ago Max got into our bed and spent the night taking up half of it. Sailor gets up pretty early for work (he's one of the Navy's over qualified janitors at the moment). He was on the pot and Max comes in weaving like a drunk man or a half asleep kid.
M "I need to go potty"
S "Go in the other potty"
M "NO! Daddy do not potty. I need to potty!"
S "I'm using this potty, Max. Give me a minute."
M "NO! No mumbmle mumble potty. Mumble mumble this potty!" (at this point Max is so tired and mad that he can form actual words)
Max finally calmed down enough to be lead to the other potty and then to his own bed.
