2. What are your kids really into right now?
Laina is really in Littlest Pet Shop toys right now and bless that kid’s heart, when she gets it in her brain to have something…she wears her mother down until it happens. Somewhere my Mom is grinning right now because the pestering, begging, negotiating, convincing, and reasoning that my daughter does with me is exactly what I did to my own mother. It served me well. I talked her into three different kittens and a black lab puppy in my lifetime. But now it’s my turn to resist the powers of an adorable/relentless child. Laina wants me to spend $100 on LPS. Allow me to elaborate:

oh my gosh.. my kids are all grown up but I remember conversations like this though my kids (4) were never this determined. I would say maybe work it out EXCEPT if you give in,what is the next thing she is going to want? Because the next time is going to be much harder if she thinks she won. I am totally sending prayers your way. Good luck!

She has me in quite the pickle! The thing is she is SUCH a good little girl the rest of the time. I’m definitely tempted to cave.

OMG. This is my life with my 8yr old. She writes me guilt trip letters all the time about her Beanie Boos when I say no. Finally someone who completely understands my life. She bargains, negotiates, and writes guilt trip letters all the time. Drama queen or great business woman in the making, I am not sure.

You feel my pain! Seriously, these girls better use their talents for good!
