Don't ya just wish..

....that you could go back to that time when everything was so innocent and simple? Vance made me think of how simple a child's life is yesterday. When all you had to think about was what you were going to play... and what good things you were going to eat! 


I had to take Jaxson into my room after I put the boys to bed to have a discussion with him about going straight to sleep at night and not playing. A few minutes later, Vance came into the room 
"Mommy? What's Jax getting?" he asks. 
"A talking to" replied I.
 "Can I have some?" says Vance. 
I was confused.  "Huh? Some what?"
 "Can I have some talking to?"
I tried to explain to him what a 'talking to' was, and that it wasn't edible. But he wasn't buying it. For the next 10 minutes I could hear him in the room, begging Jaxson to share his 'talking to'. 
"Let me have a bite, Jax!"     "Let me smell your talking to!" 

I don't think I'll ever be able to give one of the kids a 'talking to' again without laughing...
