Good thing I taught them to write.

Though my girls are really laidback and truly do love spending time with each other, due to the excessive amount of snow and therefore inability to play outside, they're obviously coming to the place where they need a little space.

The other morning, I woke up to Raegan yelling at Charis and Selah. I still don't know why, but a toy may have been involved.

Later that day, this is what I saw written up on the dry erase board.



Charis (7), The Eternal Optimist. and the one who would rather encourage you than accuse you wrote:

"I love my family. Big and little. We do things for each other and have fun together. Because we are a family."


Maybe she was hoping that if she wrote it out, it would somehow influence the non-reading, screaming sister?

Selah (5)
, though usually is the one who will just try to make the upset person happy again, cleary decided to adopt a new approach: The Forthright Realist. who obviously wanted to get to the bottom of the Morning Drama.

"Raegan, why did you yell at us"

Why she chose to write this out, I have no clue. But man, if these girls don't make me laugh on a daily basis.

You know, when I'M not yelling at them to stop screaming. *wry grin*
