after a chaotic day with elsie in the craft room, it was suggested i take the day off today, LOL.
yesterday's craft was to make a bird feeder with peanut butter. while i was assisting the kids, elsie was sticking her hand in the jar of peanut butter, licking it off her fingers.. and managed to get a handful of bird seed in her mouth... which she continued to spit out ever so dramatically. while the other craft leader was giving directions to the kids, elsie stood up on the chair and said, "no no no no". there were other instances that made the day verrrrry long for mommy. she'd sense that mommy was losing it, she'd make this face at me and say, 'do you like this face mommy?' or 'you happy, mommy?' which of course, i could deny neither :) so today we are taking the day off. we'll drop all the kids off and just have some downtime. we'll give the craft break room a break from elsie. :)
LOL Sounds crazy (and fun from where I am sitting ;o) She`s pretty adorable though :o)

My girl does the same thing. She knows how to push my buttons & some days, I just wanna disappear "like a genie in a bottle". There's good days & bad days - hopefully tomorrow is a GOOD day for U.
