Her Is Not A Dumbie

So tonight I was trying to be sneaky and have Kate go to bed early (which was much needed, she had cried all day long), but still be a nice mom to Brayden and grant his want to stay up and watch a movie. I put a lot of planning and thought into this to make it happen. While Brayden was in the shower I got Kate ready for bed, we read the stories, I got her a drink, we bushed her teeth and I had her all tucked into bed with the threat that if she got out I would close the door. She was for sure done with for the night, with the threat of closing the door she NEVER comes out of her room. I then went and help Brayden finish getting ready for bed. After awhile we went out into the family room and quietly had Brayden pick a movie, I even turned the volume very, very low. With a smile on my face, I was thinking "success and now peace", I preceeded out to the freezer to get me some cookie dough (much needed at the end of my days). When I came back, there Kate was with a look of disgust on her face and said"but mom I can't see the movie from my bed". I just laughed and told her I would let her watch the movie if she promised to fall asleep while she watches the movie, which hasn't happened yet (not supriesed), so YEAH another fun day with her tomorrow.
I titled this post "Her"instead of "She" because Kate won't say SHE or HE it is always HIM or HER. We laugh because Brayden did the same thing, and I have noticed that lots of little kids to this. So I don't worry to much, hopefully she will figure it out someday, until then we will enjoy the cuteness.
