I'm in the bathroom getting ready this morning, which for some reason seems to be when my kids are at their funniest. I heard the girls arguing about something and in walks The Lu. She climbs up on the toilet, grabs my cheeks and turns my face so that she can have my undivided attention and says, "Mommy, will you lell at Rilee so she will give me da Legos?" (And that's not a typo - The Lu says Lell not Yell. Isn't it sweet!)

Apparently her yelling was not effective and she was calling in the pro. Needless to say, I told her that there were plenty of Legos to go around and that they needed to "work it out", which has been my favorite parenting phrase lately. So there was no lelling and yes, they worked it out. :o)
