Lil' Miss "Correction Officer"

We are learning these days that when you live with a child that is quickly approaching 3, you can expect to be corrected on an hourly (if not more often) basis. It's quite humorous actually. She corrects Grandma and Nana quite regularly when they read to her (I guess I'll take the blame for this one as she thinks the only way to read a book is the way Mama reads it). The other day, in fact, she corrected Nana because she missed a small paragraph in one of her favorite books and made her go back and read it the right way. She also likes to correct us when we tell her what to do or what to say... as if she is the boss (which is, of course, not true - but occasionally we let her think she is).

However, the funniest story that happened recently was when her daddy was drawing with her and he drew what he himself would call a "poor version" of a circle. He then said to her "Paisley, do you know what that is? It's a circle!" to which she responded "No, Daddy, that is an oval!" (Come on, daddy!! Get your shapes straight...haha!)

This is priceless. I also wanted to point out that HUNTER has plans to marry Paisley so you had better advise her as such :)

Beautiful journal/stories. I may just be inspired to try this someday in my spare time:)

Thanks for sharing. Keep me informed with new posts!
Love and Admiration,
Kirsten
