I will be so glad when the 6 yr old understands hyperbole
and sarcasm. x(

"Mom! Watch this!"

"Ruby...I know. I've seen this episode of Spongebob like...3 million times."

"Really?"

"Yes, really."

....

"Is this the 3 millionth time you've seen it or did you see it 3 million times before this time?"

:banghead: :D

3. My daughter just calls me a liar when I say stuff like that
and she always follows it up with "come on mom, tell the truuuuuth". So silly.

Abby learned how to jump rope over the weekend. Now she spends her time yelling at me to "WATCH THIS!" *jump* "oh, I messed up. OK now WATCH THIS" *jump jump jump* "WOO HOO! Hey mom, WATCH THIS!" *jump jump* It's never ending.

6. I feel your pain
Although mine is sadly...well, mine, and lacks the coordination to do anything that spectacular. She's more into the whole standing on one foot, falling over, then trying again. And again. And again. To the "WATCH THIS!" chorus. :D
