Conversation with Oldest on a Friday morning.
Oldest: Mom, is it ok if I get into the shower?
Me: Didn’t you take one last night?
Oldest: Yes. But you told me to take another one before my sleepover tonight.
Me: Yes, but I didn’t say to take one at 9 in the morning. Wait till later, maybe noon.
Oldest: I want to take one now.
Me: You need to wait, because you will put on your good clothes then get them dirty before you leave. And you aren’t leaving til atleast 5 this evening.
Oldest: But I want to take it now. It’s no big deal.
Me: No you will not. You have to wait.
Oldest walks away in a huff…and I am shaking my head saying I actually told her to NOT take a shower! *face palm*
