Oh...really?

I love my nieces and nephews. Sometimes they drive me nutso and sometimes I can't get enough of them. My 4 year old niece Maddy has learned a new phrase which she likes to say with a bratty little attitude. "Oh, really?", she loves to say. It's one of those things that you can't laugh at in front of her and can't help laughing at later.

"Madelyn! If you jump off your dresser, Lily will copy you and hurt herself." "Oh, really?" Translation: Am I supposed to care?

"Madelyn it's bad manners to burp at the dinner table". "Oh, really?" Translation: What are you going to do about it?

"Maddy, it's time to put your PJ's on". "Oh....really?" Translation: Try and make me.

Awe...kids....the best revenge any older sibling could ask for.

Kids can be so funny and sassy sometimes. Lucy cracks me up whenever I ask her why she does something she just says "that's why I do." It's funny yet frustrating too.
