Too smart for her own good!

I have to find the humor in London so I don't go crazy most days. Most of the time, she's flat out just too smart for her own good! Alot of the time, this translates into her and I butting heads like crazy, but some days, she's just funny!

We were at the Walmart, and London looks up from the cart and says, "Mommy, you know I saw on the TV the other day a brand new shampoo! It says that you wash your hair in the morning, and guess what? You have super soft hair ALL DAY LONG! Can you believe it, mom? Could we go get some of that?

On the way into the store, London was limping. I asked her what was wrong, and she said her toe hurt in her clogs. I said, "well, we'll for sure put you in a cart so that you're toe doesn't hurt any more." She looked up and said, "well, it's the kind of hurt toe that only hurts outside. As soon as we get inside, and I can walk around the store, it'll be okay."

During dinner that night, London got off her chair, again limping, and said, "Mom, I think I should be done with my dinner, because chicken and rice and salt (yes she considers it a food group) make my toe hurt worse." Really...

And lastly, I should preface with the fact that we're once again trying a coin reward system with London. This stems from her preschool teacher saying that she's alienating all her friends at school with her bossiness. The coin reward system has worked like a charm this time. She gets a coin when we catch her being polite, or kind, or doing something nice for her brother, etc. Well this morning, she came up with a better reward system. She said, "you know how I earn those red and white and blue coins, mom? Well, I was thinking that when I earn those, well you should probably give me a Mom and Dad dollar, too. You know just so I have lots of dollars. Don't you think that's a great idea?" Um, no.
