I (Nate) was with the kids last night and today having a campout (we’ll post pics soon). The girls were great, so much fun, despite some "moments" with antagonism and outbursts… that is standard lot for kids, I suppose.
We were putting the girls to bed at about 9 pm since the kids were playing so well, however the sugar in the s’mores got my kids all chatty. In the tent Natalie and Amy were talking like middle school girls. They’d get all quiet, then I’d here some whispers then they’d start laughing and giggling with one another in the tent, they were very cute! :)
After about 30 minutes or so, I warned them to stop talking and go to bed (it was 10:00 at night!). They were good for about 2 minutes then they’d start talking again. I warned them to stop or they’d get a spanking. Well, they continued to disobey and talk, so I went in to give them each one spanking. I gave Amy a spanking, she did not cry, she laid down in her pack-and-play. I turned to Natalie to give her a spanking too, as I turned to her, she was climbing out of the sleeping bag and waiting on all fours for me to give her a spanking.
There was a moment I was laughing in my mind and was almost not able to give her a spanking. But I knew I needed to follow through with the disciplinary action. But it was really funny and really cute! Another reminder why I love my little girls…
I am so thankful for my girls! :)
