The Clapper

The other night my mom and dad came over to see the kids. While they were here Cade and my mom were playing with his basketball goal. She started clapping for him and saying "yeah". Well now every time Cade does anything he claps for himself. So we clap as well and say "Yeah Cade". Yesterday Cade was outside with Jeff and threw such a fit that he knocked Jeff's glasses off his face and onto the sidewalk. Jeff brought him in and spanked him. Then he told Cade to say he was sorry. Cade stopped crying and said, "sar" then immediately started clapping and said "yeah Cade." I look at Jeff through clenched teeth. He had his teeth clenched as well. However, we couldn't hold it any longer we both got so tickled. Needless to say we (Jeff and I) still have a lot of work to do when it comes to disiplining our children. ;)

  1. OMG your stories crack me up! Lynn has been clapping & saying yeah for a while after following our lead as well. I don't think I could have held a straight face through the disciplining either!
