I Still Like You, Too!

Macy has been making me crazy lately. Her new thing is, "What Mom?" She says this whenever I am talking to her. She says it 3 or 4 times to the same comment, and I swear she is standing 3 feet away from me. It is so annoying! Today, she was in her room getting her shoes on. I had already asked her to be quiet because Paige was sleeping. (Macy woke Paige up from her nap yesterday. A 12-month-old with one, one-hour nap is NOT a happy child the rest of the evening. So, I was pretty much going to lose it if Macy woke Paige up for the second day in a row.) She was talking to Claire, and they got loud, of course. I went in and asked her to be quiet. She started in with the "What Mom?" thing. After three times, I bent down, held onto her arms, and told her to listen to me when I speak. I didn't yell, but I was pretty stern with her. I walked past her room a couple of minutes later and she said, "I still like you, Mom." I wanted to say, "Well...the jury's out on you right now." But, I was laughing too hard to be upset with her anymore! Instead I said, "I still like you, too." It's a good thing God made her so cute. It has saved her life countless times!

How funny is this picture of her! She just turned four and already she's multi-tasking like a true woman. Talking to Daddy on the phone while blow-drying her baby's hair. I love you, Mace!
