ANGRY LETTERS!

About a week or so ago Logan got in trouble for not going to bed on time. His punishment was no stories before bed. Well that didn't make Logan happy and so he tried to beg, plead, cry and any other tactic he thought would make me give in. After about 20 minutes of this, I told him to go to his room, that I couldn't talk to him right now(I admit, I was quickly losing my temper and didn't want this to turn into a yelling match with my 6 year old).

A very unhappy Logan went to his room while I went downstairs to straighten up, turn out lights, etc., before going to bed myself. When I got to my room and was getting ready for bed, I notice a note on my bed. It was from Logan.



Translated, for those who can't read Logan's phonetic spelling it says:
"Mom, I know this isn't a good time to do this but I want to talk to you. Read the sign". In case you can't see it very well, underneath the last sentence, he wrote the same sentence again in 'jagged' block letters.

Logan came to my room just as I finishing reading this and asked if I got the note. So we spent a few minutes talking about his note, as well as the consequences for not obeying. He then asked if I knew what the last part of his note said and did I know why he wrote it that way. I told him I knew what it said, but didn't know why it was written in 'jagged' letters. His reply: "Those are my angry letters. They let you know I am mad!"

Even now when I think about it, I crack up laughing! Little kids say and do the funniest things! I sure do love my Logan! For as much as he tries my patience, he sure is a funny and wonderful kid!
