Things I said to my children this week

(I am not making any of this up)

• Take the caterpillar outside

• Don't kick, push, pull, splash, hit, jump on, throw things at your brother

• Don't suck on the pinecone

• Don't lick the floor, your shirt, the cement, Uncle Spencer

• Spit out the pinecone

• Ignore Daddy, he is just teasing

• Give Mommy the pinecone

• I love you
