Think

I have learned that I really need to think about what I say more often, and how I say it. The other night I was getting the girls to bed and they were being so good so I said, "I have the best girls ever." Then Elizabeth said, "do you really mean that mom?" It surprised me and asked why she would say that. She said, "well sometimes you get really mad at us and you said one time that Alexis was acting like a brat." That made me really feel horrible.
Then the other night we were at a pizza place having dinner and there was a family that had four boys. Our girls had been great and right as we were leaving I said, "your boys are being so good." then the mom told me that they are very rambunctious and they are crazy most of the time. So I said, "well mine could probable beat yours, they can be too." and right after I said that, Brytlee started acting so weird and scream really loud while we were walking out the door and for the rest of the night was acting very "crazy!" I guess hearing me say that she thought it was how she was suppose to be acting.
Brytlee said a couple of things that I need to write down before I forget. She LOVED her trip to Vegas and has been talking about it non stop. One funny thing she said was, "mom I saw Evil las Vegas" I didn't know what she was talking about but later found out she was talking about the song on the Just dance 2, Viva Las Vegas.
The other night when I was cleaning up the kitchen I had cut my finger with a knife and as soon as I did Elizabeth ran and got me a band-aide and Brytlee got me a tissue and they both fixed it for me. Then when I kept loading the dishwasher, Brytlee said, "mom go sit down and rest, you are to fragile so I will do it K." Sooooooooo cute. She also told me the other day while she was in a cleaning mood that she was going to just clean the whole house so I needed to go and take a nap.
I really do think my girls are the best girls ever and I really need to work hard so they know that I feel that way. I love them all so much and they make me so happy. (most days, we do have our little moments but they are not that bad) I am grateful that I have my little girls and that I get to see them grow and learn and play. I love them so much and I hope that they see it now instead of later in life. I know that I realize so many things about my own mom that I didn't notice until I had my own children.
