i love all my brown children especially faith.
lately she has really tested my patience and has probably caused premature grey hairs.
we had a conversation last week and this is how it went
SCENE 1: newmans living room watching some stupid stupid show
eva is basically a zombie as she lays on the couch and watches tv
faith has tv ADD so she cant sit still and im pretty sure she wasnt even watching the show
stacey is folding laundry and randomly watching the brain-draining show
stacey "girls you need to go upstairs and clean up the mess you made in your room"
faith "aaaaaah do we have too?"
{eva hasnt even acknowledge that i even opened my mouth}
stacey "yes"
faith "what if i dont clean my room"
stacey "ill throw you out the window"
faith chuckles "no you wont"
stacey head starts to slowly fill with flames "faith just go upstairs please and clean your room, if you go eva will go"
{note the fact eva is practically not involved in this whole situation}
faith "growls&moans and makes weird noises thinking thats going to change my mind"
stacey "im going to count to three"
faith "why do you and mommy count to three?"
stacey "because we have asked you to do something more than one time and you still havent done it so its a chance for you to dash to your room before i slap your bum with the broom."
faith "but what happens when you get to three?"
stacey "faith seriously i am going to throw something at you, go upstairs."
faith "well start counting so i can run upstairs"
stacey "it would be better if i didnt count"
faith "but you need to count"
stacey "oh my gaaaaaaaah .. 1 .."
{faith runs to the bottom of the stairs, along with zombie eva}
faith "why did you stop counting?"
stacey "because you started to go upstairs"
faith "well you need to count to three"
stacey steam is streaming out of ears "2...3"
{hear them slam their door }
..seriously?!!
but its not like i could be frustrated with this precious african for long
cause i mean look at her ..shes soo dang cahuute.
