Me: Bryce - DON'T push your sister. That is NOT NICE. You love your sister and should always be nice to her. Is pushing and kicking nice?
Bryce: No
Me: Ok then... you need to start being nicer to her. She loves you and wants to play with you.
(Enter Jenna)
Jenna walks over and SMACKS Bryce right on the face!!!!!
Hmmmm.... her timing is PRICELESS!!!! How am I supposed to handle this one? Of course this happened RIGHT after I was talking about how much Jenna loves him! Bryce just looks at me after she hit him... (Don't Laugh Hayley - you can get through this!) I could feel Bryce's stare saying "See Mom - she hits me too!!".
Definitely a moment that BACKFIRED in my face!! A good story to tell though! Brothers & Sisters will be Brothers & Sisters!!! :) Gotta love it!
There's still LOTS of LOVE between these two! :)
lol, too funny! i would have had to refrain from laughing too. kids will be kids and there is nothing you can do about the bickering. i talk till i am blue in the face with my boys and they listen for about 10 minutes then they are back to bickering or fighting or wrestling again. the joys of kiddos:) but deep down they really do love them and would protect them in a heartbeat!
