Go Away Bugs!

This evening my husband and I were sitting out on our patio in the backyard, and E. was with us.  The other two were already inside the house. 
As we were sitting there, relaxing after doing some yard work, the locusts started their mating calls.  Well, E. just hated that sound!  She said,"Stop it bugs!  That's enough!  Shhhh!"  And when they started back up, she said, "Stop it! Bugs! Good bye!  See you soon!"  And then spit her tongue at them!

This is the same girl who, when she sees any type of bug, it's always an 'ant' and she is determined to kill it!
My crazy 2 year old!

Please and Thank You!

I love when I offer some sort of food to E. (the 2 yr. old) that she doesn't like.  She'll say, "No thank you, Mommy!"  She is so good w/ her manners!  She is like a sponge and just picks it right up!  She says please (sometimes I have to remind her), thank you (almost all the time), and when you sneeze, she'll automatically say Bless you!  She's my little Emily Post!  LOL! 

I cannot discount the fact that the older two are just as well mannered.  But....it took them a little longer to grasp when it's appropriate to say everything.

Now, I just have to pray that they use these manners out in public when I'm not around!  That might just be a mother's dream!

Thank you for stopping by!  ;D
