Today Kizzy was a grumpy girl. I'm actually thinking she might be coming down with something. But before today she never had the verbalization skills to express her grumpies to me and she had some doozies today. Examples:
Kizzy: Mommy, my eyes are rubbing.
(pause)
Me: You're rubbing your eyes?
K: yes, my eyes are rubbing
M: are you tired?
K: NO! I just need a rest
K:Mommy! I talking to you!
M: what Kizzy?
K: look at my face!
(I look)
K: It's my grumpy face.
Kizzy had been playing by herself for about 20 minutes while I had been giving Kendal his lunch. She came and found me in the kitchen and announced-
K: Mommy, everybody is bothering me!
M: who is bothering you?
K: EVERYBODY!
M: well Kizzy, Kendal's napping, what do you want to do?
K: (shrug)
M: We can play, or read stories, or watch a show, or play a game. What do you want?
K: (shrug)
M: how about coloring? do you want to color?
K: NOTHING MOM! I want to do nothing!
M: ok, we don't have to do anything.
K: But Mom! I want to color!
Even with the grumpies, this girl sure can make me laugh.

I had a serious case of the grumpies when I first read this last night. Thanks for a good laugh and a little perspective.
Absolutely hilarious! I loved reading this!
