i love the feeling of being right, i mean who doesnt? but i especailly love being right, when im proving josh wrong. i dont mind being wrong, it happens (but not often), but im okay with saying i am wrong.....josh on the other hand....dosent take it so well. the boy loves to argue (he comes by it naturally :) love ya barbara), and not yelling and screaming arguing---just the im right your wrong type stuff. and he wont stop until the point is dead....or when i give up and just walk away. i am not really a big arguer but sometimes he just eggs me on and i keep going with him, but normally i just tell him whatever and walk away. so the other day when i got an official win i was on cloud 9.... its the little things. and then even better, it took less than 30 minutes for me to win my case.....huge victory.
and this is how i won..... i was getting ready to take a trip to the grocery store for a few small items that we needed to last us for the rest of the week. he looked at the list and decided that we really needed to stick to our list better, and that if something wasnt on the list we shouldnt buy it. i told him sure, okay, whatever, like that can really happen. and of course he had to argue with me- we(he) needed to get better about writing stuff down when it ran out, and when we(I)go to the grocery store, we buy whats only on the list...his theory was that we would spend less and just get what we needed. i again said yeah, sure, whatever.... so as i was walking up and down the isles to get what we needed i remembered that josh had said we needed more pull-ups (she only wears them overnight...still working on that part)...but of course it wasnt on the list (and he was the one to notice we were out). but i got them anyways. no more than 10 minutes later i get a text- "pick up pull-ups" i got a huge grin on my face and texted back "sorry...not on my list" he of course texted back " you suck" and i texted back-"your rules sweetie" and the sure sign i had won.... "i hate you" :) ahhh, the sweet signs of victory.
I got another one the other night too, well not really me as much as little miss, but shes too young to get the full humor, so i am counting it as my victory.....she really wanted to take alexi for a walk, but it had been raining off and on. josh told her if it stopped we could go. so he is arguing with her about wether its raining when she opens the door, walks out, puts out her hands and goes.....its not raining daddy....he tries to tell her again that it is and is yet again proven wrong :) yep its the little things :)
