Now I know its not a nice thing to call your child a liar, but...my child is a liar!!!! Just a few minutes ago, he so sweetly asked me if he could have some fruit snacks, and I said yes. So a few minutes later, he asks me if he can have another package. I said no because Gramma Kissy is bringing him McDonalds for lunch (a sympathy lunch because he stepped on a nail last night...we'll save that story for another post). He said ok, but "is it okay if I just look at the Nemo snacks." Stupid me says it's fine because he doesn't know how to open the fruit snacks. Fast forward a few more minutes and I go back to the living room, no fruit snacks in sight, and ask where they are. He tells me they are back in the box, but I do NOT believe him. He has this grin on his face from ear to ear...telling me exactly what I already knew. So here is the conversation that follows:
Me: Mikey, did you eat the fruit snacks?"
Mikey: no
Me: Where are they?
Mikey: back in the box (grinning wildly)
Me: Did you eat them?
Mikey: Yes.
Me: How did you get them open?
Mikey: with the scissors (laughing wildly and running...uh, limping, away ---the nail, remember?)
Me: WHAT?????
Mikey: (stops to give me a hug and rub my back) - I SORRY MOM!
OMG!! I just burst out laughing, and so did he. I am in big trouble already...what a schmoozer!
By the way, I checked the garbage can, and sure enough, there were 2 empty fruit snack packages...neither of which were opened by a pair of scissors!!!

I'm right there with you Jaime! I don't believe a word that comes out of Julia's mouth these days.
Maybe he was apologizing for making you think he used scissors. I can laugh b/c I live it!
