A Love Hate Relationship.

OK, so first let me say, I like it when the kids all have their hair combed and styled before they go to school. There, I said it. Call me a horrible mother, but I do. I'm a control freak I guess, but there you have it. So this morning, we over slept, and were rushing to get everyone ready for school. I did Morgan's hair first, with little to no problems. (ie: screaming, whaling, gnashing of teeth, clutching at the back of her head, etc.) Then, I moved on to Gabe. He's easy, cause he likes to look good for the ladies. Then came Chandler. "No! not the moose, just spray it with water. The moose makes it sticky. Look, Its all smooth now, and your gonna make it sticky!" Unfortunately for Chandler, he has Matt's hair. Which is great, in that its really thick, and there's a lot of it, (for now) but its also a bear to get it to stay in one place....thus the usage of moose. I just ignored his pleas, (like I said, we were late) and sprayed a bunch of moose into my hand, than attacked his hair with it. Morgan stood by watching in horror. When I was all done, and his hair was combed, Morgan came up to me, and with her hands on her hips said "his hair was all smooth. I felt it, and it was all smooth, and you ruined it!" Then she turned, with her back to me and walked out of the room. I tried not to laugh. (see, I told you I'm horrible) But it was also nice to see her coming to her oldest brother's defence. They've been butting heads quite a bit lately. (Reminds me of when Chris and I were younger)

So I start up the stairs to go tell Matt what had happened. And I hear a shriek from the kitchen. Morgan and Gabe had discovered the cupcakes I had made the night before for their class parties today. (pictures to follow tonight) She came running into the living room all smiles, and saying " Thank you thank you mommy. I love them. Even when I hate you, I still love you!) I thought Matt was going to die laughing.

Kids are the best! I miss those interactions! Luke is pretty entertaining, but not is that cute way! That's why I LOVE it when the grandkids come to visit!
