Dang it....

Me after church yesterday: "I am so hungry I could die."
Jaxton: "I wouldn't even care if you died."

I CRIED....
Then I had a pity party for myself....
Now I'm considering trying a new parenting strategy....

He didn't mean it.

Just the same, you send that little bugger over to my house and I'll teach him a lesson or two about HOW MUCH WORSE IT COULD BE. :-)

Just kidding.

OH dear, that's hilarious...I'm sure he was just wanting the reaction from you!

I hate it when kids say things like that. They just don't understand how hurtful they can be. They want a reaction from you!
I never give parenting advice but a book that changed the way I parent and my life is "Love and Logic Magic for early childhood" I started using it when my daughter was 2 because we hated each other! It was destroying me. Anyway, we have used it ever since and it is so great! check it out. http://www.amazon.com/Love-Logic-Magic-Early-Childhood/dp/1930429002/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1222148194&sr=8-2
I don't think you were really looking this but I thought I would share it.

My little guy, Greyson, tells me on a regular basis he wants to "smash me like a bug"...nice. Sometimes kids say the rudest things...but they wouldn't know what to do w/o us (at least that's what I say to myself to help me feel better ;)
