Spank yo bum

In our house we spank. Now let me be clear before someone calls the CPS on us. If the occasion warrants a serious need for such correction, we take a large wooden paddle and... oh stop, we would never do that. We have very rarely, gently but firmly open hand swatted our child's fairly padded bottom. There I said it.

Today was a very busy day for me. I had a lot of photography work to finish up, clients to attend to, hospital babies to photograph, and tonight there is a little gathering of ladies for a 31 products party at our house. As I began to clean up, the children began to tornado. For each room I completed on the cleaning list, they came behind me and undid all my hard work. So then I began to yell.Not exactly as pictured, but had the neighbors been passing at the right time, I am sure they heard Winter's name being called. I do not like to clean while the children watch me or worse make a mess as I am picking up the 10,000 messes they made yesterday. Something about the idea of 10,001 makes me a little crazy. Ok it makes me go insane. Anyway, long story short, I was yelling downstairs to Winter to come help me finish cleaning HER room (she got distracted by the TV.) Ledger comes over to me and says:
"no mommy, that dis bad"
"no yelling, I gonna spank yo bum" and spanked me.
I was laughing so hard. I guess he finally had enough of my cleaning and yelling.
