Over heard while the monsters where playing in their room.
Charlie: “Cooper get on that bed and stay there!”
Cooper: “NO!”
Charlie: “Now! I’m counting to four! One…two…three… Good! Now stay there!”
Cooper looking down safely from his perch high above on the bunk bed: “Or WHAT?”
Charlie: “Or I’ll count to five!”
Cooper: “oh” whispered with some gravity as if this was the worst punishment in the world…
I love kids.

Not the Five Threat! Nooooooo….
LOL- five IS so much worse! LOL
yea, that makes sense
your kids are awesome
Say it’s ain’t so … the imperial V
Numbers always freak me out.
Oh the dreaded five, so much scarier than four. You know it’s sometimes followed by six and then things are really getting serious!
Or What???
That is funny.
Kids are so comical and if you listen you can catch their amazing thought process going on.
anything but th efive!
why didn’t I ever try that?
LOL…
Me 2!
hahah, five *is* the worst after all.
(I just noticed the new pic, classic.)
re: I totally exchanged numbers with him. And I did not give a fake number either… what was I thinking? I blame my temporary insanity on the dog.
LMAO here, your kids are brilliant!
you have some pretty smart kiddos ang! and nora roberts/jd robb…. LOVE IT!!!!
That is awesome.
I love that.
That’s great! Wandered here from Bay Chic’s site. Also a Nora Robert/JD Robb fan. Trying to get through Montana Sky at the moment. It’s not one of her best unfortunately.
Thats to cute! She was generous at 5, its usually 3!
So…what happens when YOU count to five and everyone isn’t lined out properly???? It must be REALLY bad!!! Of course I’ve never met your kids but I love them anyway. Thanks for sharing. Peace
Kids are so cute at that age! I miss having my kids that age! Well, sometimes…
Once when we lived in Charlotte, we came down here for a visit, and we always stayed at my parents house. My sister and her (now ex) husband, and their (then just two) kids came over to Mom’s to visit. The kids got along splendidly, and Ashley and Austin were having a great time. Too great, I guess… because when Todd said, “Austin, it’s time to go”, he didn’t want to, so Todd said, “OK, Austin, I am going to count to three. Well, three went into five, and was going on ten, and Ashley (who was 4 at the time) went up to her uncle, and said in a solomn voice, “Uncle Todd, on three you spank!”
I guess not many kids say “gimmie five” these days.
That is a good one.
Too cute! I love the pictures of art you recently posted. I’m ready to exchange art if you are!
That is adorable.
LMAO…too funny!
And I wonder if that would work for our World Leaders.
Can you imagine the next big NATO meeting, hehe?
Have a great day and thanks for the laughs.
*hugs*
Pretty impressive — most parents don’t even get to” three”.
I always figured that counting means you’ll allowing them to delay obedience, which is just another form of disobedience. So when I count, I’m adding up the swats they’ll get once they finally do obey. I raarely have to count past “one”.
That is cute
RYC: Thank you
I’ll count to 5?? LOL Priceless!!!!
That is funny!

I love kids, too. My daughter teaches music to 3rd and 4th graders Monday thru Thursday, and 5 and 6 year olds on Fridays. I love hearing about some of the things they say!
