Envelopes

After a period where the girls seemed to be pushing every boundary possible, I said to the girls in my most exasperated voice, "Girls, stop pushing the envelope!"

Katie responded in her sweetest voice, "But, Daddy, Elizabeth and I don't have an envelope." 

And that's the story of how Katie ended up in a time out.

It's What Makes Me Special

Over breakfast, Katie was complaining that she had trouble sleeping because of some particularly loud noise outside the previous night.  

Elizabeth immediately responded, "Well, I heard nothing, and I slept great last night thanks to my hearing loss.  It's what makes me special."
