Scene from this Morning

The Scene: (breakfast, typical weekday morning. I am in the kitchen, reading my emails, packing lunch for Miss Peach, trying to get breakfast into two kiddos, making my morning tea, and reading the paper. Mornings are not my strong suit:P)

Miss Peach: (whining and demanding) "Mommy, I want peanut butter and jam for breakfast!"

Me: "One moment." (I say "one moment" quite a lot/all the time)

A few moments pass...OK, maybe 5 minutes.

Miss Peach: (dropping the whining, straight to demanding) "Get me my peanut butter and jam!"

Me: "Don't bark at me. Mommy does not respond well to being barked at."

Miss Peach: (and I am not making this up) "Quack!"Touche my little smart a$$...touche;P

  1. Love it. It's always most infuriating when the apple falls and hits the tree trunk.

  4. Mornings have never been my strong suit, even before I had kids. If my daughter quacked at me over breakfast, though, I might reconsider. For that morning at least.

  5. Awe... so, did you drop your life and do it, because I probably would have. Such cleverness likely deserved extra jam...

  7. Does the saying 'the apple doesn't fall from the tree tree' mean anything to you? What a cutie.

  9. Did you start laughing? I know there is no way I would have been able to hold back. I miss that age so much... The greatest things come from the mouths of babes :)

  16. She is hilarious. Seriously, this child? Wait until she is a little older, she'll probably have a fabulous humor blog ;-)

  18. Everything is so literal. You hate to laugh because you know that will make them keep up with their witty comebacks! Personally, I can't help it.
