Drama, Drama, Drama

I don't know how my boy will be, but my girls are already so dramatic. I'm trying to plan a birthday party for Big Sissy, who will be 4 in a couple of weeks. I'm totally intimidated by decorating cakes, so I asked her today if she would be sad if we just had cupcakes instead. We would have ice cream with sprinkles, of course--just no cake. I guess sad was the wrong word to use because she totally jumped on it.


"Yes, Mommy, I would be really sad about that. We HAVE to have a cake AND cupcakes AND ice cream."

Then Little Sissy joined in. "I sad too, Mommy."

"What are you sad about?"

(Really starting to cry) "Cake, Mommy. I sad. Hold me, Mommy. Hold me."


The next thing I know both girls are crying and wanting to be held, which makes Little Buddy start to cry. He doesn't even know what cake is yet. And another skit in my head is born.

It sounds like a melt-down moment in the Brimm home to me. :o)

Maybe you should let them all try out for the Muny. Sounds like they have this "acting" bit down to a science!
