Overheard this conversation and had to write it down for later!
Background info is that for Josh's birthday, he got a Wii game system. Set it up last night, and he just received a few new games for it this morning. Needless to say, it's new and shiny and lots of fun. I took the younger two girls for a bath and told them they could play again after they were clean.
As I was getting Ava dried up and dressed, she started to get antsy to get back downstairs and was beginning to throw a fit. I told her that if she continued, she would have to play in her room by herself instead of getting a turn on the Wii with the other kids.
Then Sadie says from the tub, "See, I used to try that too, and all it does is get me in trouble!!"
Of course, the joke is that she actually does STILL try the fit-throwing too, which is probably why her memory was so fresh on that little life lesson. ;->
LOL!!!! BTW - Katelyn had a blast babysitting them. She came home saying what a big help Josh was and what good kids you have. :)

You have to know what a laugh Don and I got over this little bit of sisterly advice. ;-)
