Shopping with children

Just something I came across and found it amusing and can definitely relate to!

A man observed a woman in the grocery store with a three year old girl in her basket. As they passed the cookie section, the little girl asked for cookies and her mother told her, "No." The little girl immediately began to whine and fuss, and the mother said quietly, "Now Monica, we just have half of the aisles left to go through - don't be upset. It won't be long now."

Soon, they came to the candy aisle and the little girl began to shout for candy. When told she couldn't have any, she began to cry. The mother said, "There, there, Monica, don't cry - only two more aisles to go and then we'll be checking out."

When they got to the checkout stand, the little girl immediately began to clamor for gum and burst into a terrible tantrum upon discovering there'd be no gum purchased. The mother said serenely, "Monica, we'll be through this check out stand in 5 minutes and then you can go home and have a nice nap."

The man followed them out to the parking lot and stopped the woman to compliment her. "I couldn't help noticing how patient you were with little Monica," he began.

The mother replied, "I'm Monica - my little girl's name is Tammy."

My two year old talks to spiders on the ceiling

Okay. So we were sitting in the kitchen just hanging out and my two year old(Mikel) starts pointing at the ceiling. There is a spider up there. So I say "ew.bug" and what does he say in response? "MINE" and starts reaching. Then he picks up a little marble off the centerpiece holds it up and starts talking to the darn thing. After awhile he somewhat gave up, said "bye bye" and waved at it as it crawled across the ceiling.

Not sure if this is normal. lol.

But on another note. Here is a funny little thing I came across!
