Yesterday, while doing errands, we drove past a big colorful daycare. Kids were out playing on some very basic park equipment. Unfortunately, our errand left us standing across the street from this fenced in oasis and Harrison and Truman's big blue eyes zeroed in on it. They'd like to go play too. (Of course, we'd just been to the park, but that didn't seem to matter.) I carefully explained what a daycare was, and that they didn't have to go to one because Mom and Dad make sure one of us can stay with them. Oh, the disappointment and resentment! Truman didn't have the vocabulary, but Harrison did. "It's just not FAIR, Mom!" As soon as we were inside, he carefully arranged himself in his most pouty stance and made sure I noted it several times.
What am I supposed to do with THAT?

I'm not sure what you can do with that one but dad and I sure laughed. And then we laughed again!
Oh the picture in our minds! mom
Too cute! I've heard that story a number of times with different things the kids want to do. Now Emily is starting in, so I have 3 that I hear this from, most of the time on a daily basis. It's cute when they are that age, not so much when they get older. Laugh now while you can! :-)
Woo Hoo I found your blog. (a link on Yvettes blog):)
I can just picture Harrison saying that. Maddie feels the same way. They get SO excited when they get to go to a babysitter.
Hahaha! I love it! I love when Lizzy does her pouty face. Cracks me up every time.
Yep it sure isn't fair to have such great parents as Harrison and Truman have!
My oldest asked me to go get a job so she could go to daycare. Where's the gratitude? :)
