you can't tell me she doesn't know...
so this morning akaiya decided that she wanted to be "challenging". neither one of us do very well in the morning, so we try to keep them as peaceful and routine as possible. well lil miss thang woke up full of herself and decided she did not want to deal with anyone or anything. she started off by trying to dive off of the table that she sits on while i comb her hair - it takes forever to tame those curls and her bouncing all over the place does not make the job any easier. add in the very slippery goo that goes into her hair to make it manageable and you have a dangerous situation when this little girl decides she wants to make a break for it! so we resolved the hair issue with little to no injuries only to move on to breakfast. kaiya is not a big drinker - but usually in the morning she'll at least take a few good drinks to start off her day. well today she decided that she really didn't want her juice and instead of shaking her head no like usual, she chose to go all "crazy chicken wing" on me and slap the cup out of my hand, which sent it flying, and grape juice was EVERYWHERE! so instead of our usual routine which barely gets her out of the door on time, we had to change clothes, rush rush rush, and we still got her on the bus late... now generally i would be of the mind that she doesn't know any better, but when i look at her and she is smirking at me it's very hard to believe that she is completely innocent and doesn't know she is being a little snot! i almost think she didn't want to go to school today b/c she usually greets the bus driver with a big cheesy smile, but today she just stared at me with an intense glare and would not look at the bus driver no matter how much the woman talked to her... she's 6, is she supposed to have this much attitude?

what a gal! she's quite a fiery one. yes, the docs say our kids don't know any better...but we know better: they do!
Vera knows how to be picky with who's carrying her. So there goes.
Ok Kelly, I have a couple request if you don't mind. At next conference I want a hair clinic. I want Annabel's hair to grow so I need to know what the goo is that you mentioned and also a clinic! You don't mind right???
I am sorry Ms. Cutie had an attitude this a.m. She's a smart gal. Hoping that tomorrow morning is better. Also wanted to say I like the additions to the blog. You are doing great!
i would be more than happy to do a "hair clinic" for you guys :) the goo that i am currently using on kaiya's hair is from bath and body works, it's called Dragon Dance Conditioner. we got it in the children's section and it's actually a regular conditioner that you would usually rinse out - i just don't. when i wash her hair i use panteen for women of color. i used to buy all the products made especially for ethnic hair, but they were expensive and made kaiya's hair look or smell funny. i found that for her using either cocoa butter lotion or conditioner works better, smells better, and is way cheaper than using all of the expensive products that are out there.
