trouble

Right before bath time last night, Trin was going potty and looked up and me said,

"You're an idiot."

I burst out laughing, not because I thought it was funny, it just took me by surprise. So, upon hearing my laughter Trinity thought that she was wildly funny. After I kinda pulled myself together, I told her that was not a nice word and she should never call anyone that. I then asked her to apologize and she flat out refused. I asked her again and she still refused and started acting really bratty. So after she was done on the potty she got a nice spank on her bare bum and I put her in the tub, and she started in at me.

Trin: "I'm gonna tell papa! I'm gonna tell papa!"

me: "Oh ya, what's he going to do?"

Trin: "He's gonna spank you!!!"

me (trying not to laugh again): " I don't think so. I think he would tell you to obey your mommy."

This child is getting the worst attitude some days. At times she can be the sweetest, best helper in the world, then a switch flips. I think she might have a good chance at becoming a lawyer because she finds it necessary to argue with me about anything and everything! I even considered putting her up for sale at our yard sell last week. Kidding. mostly.

God sure sent down some strong willed children for these last days.
