Playful parenting FAIL!!!!!
And here I thought I was being SO SMART So we've been really working with the kids on not jumping on the couch. We don't want it ruined, and they keep banging into each other and well...we want them to sit on the couch not jump. So Dynamo was jumping around on it today and I had a sudden moment of inspiration!!!! And I burst out with:
One little Dynamo jumping on the couch She'll fall off and then say OUCH! Momma comes and says in a voice like a grouch NO MORE DYNAMOS JUMPING ON THE COUCH!!!! All four kids burst out laughing! And then all four of them proceeded to jump up and down on the couch saying, "DO ME MOMMY! DO ME!!!!" Erm...not quite what I wanted to happen.
