Something about our kids - or us

So, I honestly had forgotten about the "stressed out" looks that the girls did. Until, yes, Charlie pulled the trick out of the bag today. Abby was the one who saw it first. They were eating lunch and Abby said, "look mom - Sharlie's stressed out!" My first thought was - I am stressed out too with you singing "Sharlie, Sharlie shake your bushy tail" for the millionth time. And apparently he was too. It's funny though, he does it the exact same way that Ashley and Abby did, and I can honestly say that he wasn't ever coached. Must be something about them - or us. We'll leave that conversation for later. Here are a few pics I got.



Don't worry, buddy. Paybacks will come.

You crack me up. I loved the part about Abby singing the bushy-tail sound a million times.

That brought back the best memories! I think Ash's stressed out face was absolutely the best! Her whole body would shake. Loved it.

I hope my kids stressed out behavior isn't what Lucy does by throwing her whole body on the floor, flailing and wailing.

Evie - I LOVE your blog. The pics are great but your writing is incredible. Thank you for this gift!

Thanks for the compliment, I'm sure you're not biased or anything. :) Whatever skill I have is probably because of all those essays you would make me write whenever I got in trouble. And those silly teachers said to never use writing for punishment!
