Consequenses

Last night while we were reading bedtime stories, Po dropped a heavy book right on Campbell's head. It wasn't completely intentional, but it was super careless, and after a pretty hectic day filled with Campbell being injured, I had had it.

"Okay. I'm done," I said, closing the book about two-thirds of the way through.

"WHY?!" Porter pleaded.

"Porter, you were goofing around and hurt your sister, which is something I've talked to you about many times before. I'm done reading for tonight. We can finish the book tomorrow," I explained

Po climbed into bed, and I tucked him in and gave him a kiss. After a moment of silence and with a serious look on his face, he shared his thoughts. "Well, Mommy, I'm done with your mean consequences."

Sometimes it's so difficult not to bust out laughing in his face. He received no verbal response from me. Simply a kiss and the lights were out. And, yes, Cam is just fine.
