so while i was sitting back enjoying the inaugural parade, dutch decided to have a tantrum…about play-doh. sometimes the strangest ideas pop into his 3-year-old little mind and then he starts buggin’.
dutch: mama, you need to buy me play-doh and bubbles.
mama: ummmm… no, i don’t. i don’t buy those things because you make such a big mess with them.
dutch: but i can go outside and blow the bubbles and i can play with play-doh outside on a table.
mama: i’m not buying play-doh and bubbles, dutch. you can’t just have everything you want.
dutch breaks down and starts crying and whining like a little nut.
like seriously, kid, is your love for play-doh and bubbles really that deep?
mama: crying and whining is not going to get you what you want, it’s going to put you on time out.
dutch pulls himself together (because we all know time out is the absolute worse thing ever for a 3-year-old) and says…
dutch: mama, i’m a good kid! please don’t make me cry again!!
my cousin recently told me, “you don’t need to put dutch on time out, you don’t need to pop his butt…you need to get him an agent.”
she might be right.
ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dutch is definitely a STAR!
haha! thanks! he definitely puts on award winning performances.
