WHEN I GET BIG.......

What happens when two Capricorns live together??? All hell breaks loose that's what happens. This morning was going great until the inauguration was over. I was trying to get Mimi ready for gymnastics and trying to get her to practice her piano before leaving. All I end up doing is to start sounding like a broken record. All morning it was "Mimi get dressed" "ok mom". Then she would go right back to goofing off in her room still in her pj's. After what seemed like the millionth time and the clock still ticking, I let her have it. I told her that I was plenty upset with her and that I was going to make her life miserable for the day. If she wants to go to Blake's, the answer is NO, if Blake wants to come here the answer is NO, and we are NOT going to the movies like I had planned. Once we were in the car on our way to gymnastics, I was told by Mimi "When I get big, I am going on a trip and I'm never coming back!!! I'm going to live with Joe and Nicole!!!" Maybe I should warn Joe and Nicole about this. Maybe one day she will show up on their doorstep with her little suitcase in hand. Phew!!! What a little chili pepper we have on our hands. I still would not have it any other way though. Just the other day I explained to Mimi that on the 24th of this month she will be having a sleep over at Blake's house because her daddy and I are going to be at dad's office Christmas Party at the Space Needle. You should have seen those crocodile tears that flowed down her cute face. "But, but, but, I'm going to miss you" sobbed Mimi. "I'm going to miss you too. But you do like Keri don't you?" I asked. "uh huh" says Mimi. "Keri's real good to you isn't she?" I said. "Uh huh, but I'm still going to miss you" said a sobbing Mimi. How soon they forget. This past Christmas, she was given a Hannah Montana calendar and now it is hanging by her bed. On the 24th day it is marked with a "B" for sleepover with Blake.
