Girls and their Drama

Ive got all the kids on my bed watching a movie while I get some computer work done before church tonight. ZoeLynn comes to me crying and stressing out. She has a slice of orange in each hand and a piece of orange in her mouth. She can barely get out her cries of frustration due to the orange slice taking up so much room in her mouth. I ask her whats the matter, and not even the baby whisperer herself could make out what this child is trying to tell me although she show no signs of you not comprehending. I don't know how she is still breathing. Chaz causally says "She upset that I wont give her an orange." Ok, I think to myself, lets pretend we were to give you another orange slice ZoeLynn, WHERE WOULD YOU PUT IT? So realizing she is simply throwing a fit I take her and put her in the tub (that is empty) in my bathroom and walk away. She lets me know she disproves of her current situation by letting out a scream. This continues for roughly 45 seconds. Then all of a sudden, silence. I walk in the room and ask her, "are you done?" She shakes her head yes. I lift her out of the tub and she waddles toward my bed and sits with her brothers to watch TV. Girls and their drama. Homegirl had a rush of hormone and emotions run over her and she needed to get all of them out (hence the screaming). And once she did, she was good. If only it will be this easy in 10 years when she will be almost 12. . . I can dream right. . .
