Dear Colin,
Please stop throwing your sippy cups. The walls of both the house and the van are covered in milk splatters. Also, your plate is not a hat.
Thank you!
Love,
Mama
Dear Gracie,
If you wouldn't mind, please turn the drama down a few notches. Don't turn it off – then you wouldn't be Gracie. But a little less would be wonderful. For example, remember today when Mama sarcastically said "Oh, Grace, your life is just soooo hard," you then sighed heavily and said "I know." Because you had to wait two minutes for Mama to help you with something.
Seriously, girl, you have no idea how good you have it.
Less drama. Trust me – it will help you survive the summer.
Love,
Mommy
Dear Ellie,
Please stop purposely making your sister crazy just to amuse yourself. There must be something you can do – perhaps reading one of your hundreds of books? Or playing with one of your zillions of toys? Or going outside or coloring? Really, there must be SOMETHING you can do that is more entertaining than driving your sister nuts.
Please. Consider it a favor to me.
Love,
Mom
About Melissa
hahahaha Drama is fun…to a point.
Boo used to throw her sippy cups, drove me nuts.
Oh, and torturing a sibling is a right of passage for the oldest. Just ask my big sister. lol
torturing a sibbling is totally a rite of passage. at least that was my excuse.
but i do hear ya on the drama – could ya turn it down just a couple notches, so as not to lose the endearing cuteness, but enough to help me stay sane?
and honestly, do your older kids not make messes? cuz mine still does and we’re past the sippy throwing stage. ahh, motherhood.
cute letters.
We have a sippy cup thrower in our house too. Actually, she throws everything – made for a really fun airplane ride
How is the house selling coming along?
SO funny! My favorite is Ellie’s although I totally identify with note one and two as we have both a milk tosser and a drama king in our house.
