I've Created a Monster . . .

Thursday, October 9, 2008

Okay, so I've created a monster! A pumpkin monster (see post below)! Today we went to the store to buy some more pumpkins, and when I put them on the check stand Bethany threw her very first, genuine, loud, screaming-right-in-the-middle-of-the-grocery-store tantrum! She did NOT want those pumpkins to go to the friendly neighborhood grocery store clerk, oh no she did not! She wanted those pumpkins RIGHT NOW. Yikes! And the clerk, bless his heart, took quite awhile to figure out the prices, all the while Bethany is getting louder, Louder, LOUDER!!!! But now they're home, and she's home trotting around with her little pumpkin, and all is right in the world!

Not to mock your pain...but when I read this, I laughed so hard my wife thought I needed to be committed to an asylum. I find joy in the the simplest things. Guess you can call me simple minded.

Yay for pumpkins! I think we are going to give Kolton a pumpkin and a paintbrush and just let him go at it! She is so cute- I can't imagine her having a fit- but I bet she was adorable even during that (to other people, anyway!)
