I was singing, “Oh fussy pants oh fussy pants, how fussy are your paaaaants” to the tune of “Oh Christmas Tree”. Shanna stopped whining/crying long enough to tell me, “I’m not wearing pants, only panties.” Then a fresh wail came out. It was hilarious!
(She’s crying because she is terribly upset that she can’t go with daddy to pick up take out that he is getting on his way home from work. Sorry kid.)
If you’ve got smart phones, see if you can get a video-call application. We’ve averted a couple cry fests by letting Lina *see* Daddy.
No smart phones. Too cheap to pay for data. 🙂
But really, sometimes it’s just plain funny that they’re upset and all you can do is sing about it!
