Last night during our nightly routine I was reading Pipi Longstocking to the girls. We tried something a little different by saying or prayers first and then getting in bed to read the story. Courtney was quickly bored with the story and started “reading” her own story. She was reading out loud as well. I asked her to ready quietly and she said, “But Mommy you are not reading quietly”. We all cracked up and of course Mike and Natalie were not listening but laughing.Tonight Aunt Diane called. While Courtney was talking to her on the phone she stopped and said, “Hold on a minute. You two stop hitting each other. I have already told you three times”. Then she turned around and kept talking to Aunt Diane. I guess she had already seen that in me a couple of times today. It is amazing the things they copy.Â
