Mommy's Giggles
I have a real problem. I laugh way too easily. It's not normally a problem, but when I'm trying to tell Simon "No" to him dropping food on the floor I need to do it with some amount of gravity (pun intended). It happened again this morning. He dropped one piece of pita on the floor. Then another. Then a raisin. I tell him, "You don't have to eat all of this but we do NOT throw food on the floor." He drops another raisin. "No, Simon." I block his arm so he can't get it past his tray. "We don't drop food." I think, "That boy don't listen for nothing." I crack a smile at his defiance and spirit. And then I start to giggle which turns this into a real fun game and I watch my dear boy give me a look that says, "Look what I'm gonna do!" and he again drops bit after bit of food on the floor while I cover my face trying to keep him from seeing me laugh. This kind of thing also seems to happen at church too. I try not to get the giggles as he yells "BA BA BA!" at the top of his lungs but I'm a total failure. God, please don't let me end up with a brat. If I do it's all my fault. I'm so sorry, boy.
