A Three Spanker Day

A note from Abby....
Today I got three spankings. All for very good reasons of course. Somedays I'm an angel and don't get in trouble at all. I think I just store up all my mischief and have it all explode in one day. Today when Daddy got home, Mom said, "Honey, it's been one of those days."
Let's see...the day started off good. I got up at 5:45 a.m. which I thought was pretty darn close to this 6 # that mom and dad keep trying to tell me about. Dad took me down for breakfast since mom worked last night and was very tired. After breakfast, I got to watch Monkey George and Clifford. I even went peepee in the potty. Then mom and I took a short drive and for some reason I decided to pee a big one in my carseat even though I had big girl panties on. Mom wasn't too happy about that, but she kept her cool.
After I got cleaned up, Mom made me my favorite-mac 'n cheese for lunch. The phone rang and while mom was chatting, I decided to grab lots of handfuls of dirt from mom's plant and throw it everywhere by the front door and living room. I got a very stern "ABIGAIL ELIZABETH", lots of "BIG NO NO's" and a spanking. Mom was definitely not too happy about that. Then when Mom asked me to pick up my markers (cause I had just thrown them all over the floor), I yelled back at her. Got another spanking when I didn't shape up and have an attitude adjustment.
But then, whew, I got a good little nap in and woke up much better. Had a snack, put together lots of puzzles, read books with Mom, watched the rain outside, and played and played some more. After awhile, I asked Mommy to make me some "ha chaca" (hot chocolate). She made me some and even put marshmallows in it (yummy!). Mommy sat with me and helped me have a few sips like a big girl. But I accidentally spilled most of it all over the dining table. Mommy was nice about it-even when she was on her hands and knees cause it was dripping on the rug through the divider crack in the table. She just reminded me that I have to be more careful next time.
Then Daddy got home and Mommy had this yummy meal of smoked sausage with red beans and rice. We sat down, prayed, and then I decided to be a (what do they call it?)"toot" again. I thought I should give Daddy a taste of what I've put Mom through today. I had what they called a temper tantrum...you know- throwing lettuce, not eating my dinner, spitting my milk out. Daddy gave me a spanking then after I threw lettuce not once, but twice. So off I went to get a bath. After my bath, I decided I didn't want to go to bed hungry so I happily came downstairs and ate the yummy dinner that my mom made for me. It was delicious...don't know what I was thinking earlier. Then I had some playtime with Daddy before I headed off to bed. So there you have it...a glimpse of my growing pains. Maybe tomorrow I'll be an angel again for Mom. I think she had it a little rough today.

That's okay, Abby. I got major bare butt, wooden spoon 'pankins today for biting Baby Drew on his little finger and making it turn purple. Mom said she didn't care that I had a fever of 103 - I still can't be a biter. :)

Love and Kisses,
