Reality Check

I had JUST posted this as my Facebook status: Jamie can't believe how proud my kids make me every single day. They are just spectacular. I can't believe God gave me them. (Or something to that effect...)

At the exact moment I posted that status, Anna came up to me with a huge shred of wallpaper in her hand.

"Oh no, the wall came off."

(Notice how the wall takes the blame here. Not, "Oh, no, I tore the wall off." No, no, no, you see the wall came off.)

A few seconds later, with triumph in her voice:
"So that's what the wall looks like underneath there."

Sigh.
