Mom2legomaniacs Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Tiny frustration. Don't you love those days in which every minute has you saying one of the following sentences: Ds, focus on your work. Ds, please stop talking. Other ds, stop talking. Stop talking. Be quiet please. Do your work. Come on, you only have 3 problems left. Let's focus, guys. Stop burping. please. Stop tooting, please. No more talking. Quit tapping on the wall and do your work. Let's not talk about the window that is rattling, let's do our work. Gee, can anybody relate?:tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlockOfSillies Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Or how about, "Stop looking at what I'm doing with the Flea and focus on your math!" for the 40th time. AAAUUUUUGGGHH. No, I can't relate at all. All of my children are perfectly focused, well-behaved workers who never succumb to distractions. Sorry. Wish I could be more helpful. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NevadaRabbit Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Ds, focus on your work.Ds, please stop talking. Other ds, stop talking. Stop talking. Be quiet please. Do your work. Come on, you only have 3 problems left. Let's focus, guys. Stop burping. please. Stop tooting, please. No more talking. Quit tapping on the wall and do your work. Let's not talk about the window that is rattling, let's do our work. Dd, stop taking your pencil apart. Ds, please don't kick the table during handwriting. Shhh. We're working. Stop making toot noises with your mouth. Please stop making toot noises. If it was real, then say "excuse me." Dd, put your pencil back together and write something. (note to self: make up story about mechanical-pencil-stealing fairies who raid our house tonight) Ds, kindly take the book out of your mouth. Dd, your chair is over here. Yeah, I can relate......

Tammyla Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 :grouphug: They will get better with time. Case in point, my ds no longer only wants to wear muscle shirts... "Because mom, they are easy to produce arm farts." " Ds, You know I do not like that word and you can enjoy that activity in your room." That was my morning daily last year. Tiny frustration. Don't you love those days in which every minute has you saying one of the following sentences: Ds, focus on your work. Ds, please stop talking. Other ds, stop talking. Stop talking. Be quiet please. Do your work. Come on, you only have 3 problems left. Let's focus, guys. Stop burping. please. Stop tooting, please. No more talking. Quit tapping on the wall and do your work.

beansprouts Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 All of the above, but usually shouted over the toddler who is bouncing up and down on your lap, singing loudly, and grabbing your face to get your attention... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murphy101 Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I refer to them as cattle-prodding days.:cheers2: You know, where mom has to nearly cattle-prod the kids to get them to do anything? Only problem is my kids' heads are way tougher than any rawhide... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom2legomaniacs Posted August 20, 2008 Author Share Posted August 20, 2008 Mine are both quite proficient with the armpit tooting. And now, they have both discovered the ability to burp at will. Oh joy.:glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennifer in MI Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Oh yes. That's every day around here. Combine all that with a 2 1/2 yo little princess who always wants attention, and you've got a daily disaster!! AGH!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angela in TN Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 My boys NEVER do any of that! They are perfect, quiet little angels who thank me everyday for the time I take to educate them. :) --I hope you hear the sarcasm, you are not alone in your pain!:lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gee, can anybody relate?:tongue_smilie: Oh! my heavens--I thought it just happened with my kids. May I add--"Leave the dog ALONE!" I need a digital voice recorder so I can just hit those responses that you listed. It would make everything SO much easier.;) I feel your pain...
