Thursday was our first swimming lesson at Wise Swim School and both Katie and Allie are enrolled in Mini Dolphins 2. It is interesting to note that Allie did not cry at swimming lessons today but Katie cried 2 times. Whenever the teacher makes Katie float on her back by herself, I think she gets scared and cries. Their teacher's name is Allison and she recognized Katie's hesitation and backed off a bit which brightened Katie's mood!
Today was another day of extreme naughtiness. I hope it is just a phase but boy has it been tough on me! It all started with them getting into the cabinet and eating about 10 of Todd's cookies. When I found the girls hiding in the corner with the empty package of cookies, they totally lied and said they did not eat them. When I told them it was not right to lie, they preceded to tell me that they did not like me and I would not be invited to their Birthday Party. Then later in the day when I was upstairs putting away some laundry, I heard them mention that they were going for a walk over to our neighbor's garage sale. I watched them as they both put on their shoes, opened up the front door and took off. I ran after them and caught them before they left the yard. When I told them that was not appropriate behavior, Allie told me that yes it was and I should not get mad at them. I cannot believe how hard this parenting gig is at times. Please say a prayer for me!
