I wonder who came up with the euphemism "handful." Let's face it, when you say, "She's a handful." You really mean, "She is a pain in the butt. Often quite sassy and disobedient. We really don't know what to do with her." And yes, Lydia is a "handful."
Here is a recent exchange I had with her.
Stop jumping on your bed young lady. (I cannot believe I said "young lady.")
NO!
Don't you say no to me.
Mom, I really like saying no.
Joshua tells me no all the time, it is usually followed with a body flop in the middle of the store. She is a beauty. :)
ReplyDeleteHow does she handle hearing no?
ReplyDeleteummm. She doesn't hear the word no. It is said, but she often ignores it.
