Not a quiet voice!

Well, we had a slight mishap at Story Time this morning. We have talked all week, and especially ALL morning about how we use a quiet vocie and slow feet in the library (as if my son knows anything but fast and super fast). I told him if he didn't use a quiet voice and slow feet we would leave. Sure enough, halfway through the librarian's second book he is not using a quiet voice, I gave him one warning and then we had to leave. I think I hated it more than he did. We got to the car and I told him we left because he didn't have a quiet voice and he looked at me with the most serious face I think he has ever had and said, "Mommy, not a quiet voice." Backfire!!!! It took EVERY ounce of control I had not to laugh. I know I wasn't yelling by any means but he was sure to let me know that I didn't have a quiet voice either! Maybe before he is 18 I will get some of this parenting stuff figured out.

This is so funny. Our kids are now old enough to tell us when we are in the wrong! Davin is such a cute boy!

I'm wondering if it's 18 with the first one or the last one! Good luck either way!
