Peanut is a very active two nearly three year old that just LOVES to tell on anyone who might be doing something wrong or that is different. For example, she sees a heavy set person in Wal-mart she has to yell out, "Mommy that lady is fat!" or if she sees someone picking his nose in his Yellow VW bug next to us at the stop light she'll say, "Oh mommy, that man is naughty, he's picking his nose. oooo gross." Needless to say the window on both vehicles were down. My sweet daughter always seems to find the best times to be obvious. A few Sunday ago was no different at all. After the trial of trying to get two little girls and a hubby pressed and dressed to go to church happy. We finally made it to our designated Pew. I pulled all the quiet (bribe) things out of the church bag (i.e.: Dora snack packs, string cheese, Scooby-Doo coloring book and colored pencils) and settled down for our 1 and a half meeting. Things were going fine. The Peanut was coloring and eating her snacks while trying her hardest to stay quiet. Lillybug was sleeping soundly in her fathers arms. Phew I could breath..all was well. Just then in the most quiet part of the service my sleeping 6 month old red head daughter lets out a baby fart. My hubby and I smile at each other over the cuteness of her little diaper fart (oh so cute). Then it happens, my 2 nearly 3 year old Peanut YELLS out at the top of her little lung ,"Oh Mommy, you Farted!!!" I quickly turned to the Peanut red faced and whispered, "shhhh sweetie, the baby has gas is all." with sheer positivity (is that a word?) she says to me, with hands on hips, "Yeah right mom...(attitude)" I looked around hoping no one heard her honesty (not that she was honest in saying I had farted...It was the baby, I swear!!) when I found 5 rows up, back and to the side of us...People where giggling and trying themselves to be quiet without bursting out in profound laughter.
Why do kids have such impeccable timing?
