Do not talk to your mother that way!

Yesterday Drew was bothering Julianna on purpose. (Tangent: If he is over-tired, he is a rascal. If he is over-rested, he is a rascal. It seems to be a lose/lose right now.) He was being rough with her and the toy. I warned him to stop being rough and to give Julianna space. He did not listen. So then, this is what we said:

Me: Drew! Number one: if you bother Julianna again, you will go to time-out. Number two: you may not play with this toy again today.

Drew: Mommy, number one: BE NICE! Number two: You should always be very, very nice!

Me: Excuse me?!

I didn't say this, but I wish I could have. Me: Take your own advice, buddy.
