OKAY!!! It has happened AGAIN!!!
Blakely: "MOM, SOMEONE STOLE MY MONEY!!!!"
Me: "Blakely, are you sure you didn't put it somewhere else? You know how
messy you are?!"
Blakely: " No, mom!!! I know it was in there!! I had $46 and now I only have $26!!"
Me: " Well honey?! Not sure what to tell you!? I will talk to your sisters!"
Blakely " BUT MOM!!!"
Brandon (DADDY): " Blakely , this is why I told you to put it in the bank"
(As if she could drive herself)
Blakely: "BUT MOMMY will NEVER TAKE ME!!!"
ME: AHH!!!! "It is always my fault!!! EVERYTHING!!"
So, I sat both Josey and Gracey down for a little interogation!!!! of sorts...ya know the kind that you give them the answers to the most probable scenarios.... AND... I tell you what!!!! I have some pretty good little liars! NOT a confession to be found!!! And as one of my scenarios was given to GRACELYN, this is what I found out........
Me: " Gracelyn, where did you see Blakely's wallet?"
Gracey: " On her black desk thing"
Me: "oh.. did you put it back there after you took Blakely's bill with a 2 and a 0 on it?"
Gracey: "what 2 and 0?"
Me: " Gracey, did you take bubba's money to school to give it to your friend?"
Gracey: "Mommy, I only took my special pretty penny to school to give to CHLOE as a friendship penny!"
Me: " What do you mean?"
Gracey: "It was so Chloe knew she was my friend!"
(so we have already learned that we have to buy friends?!? ahh!)
Me: " Gracey, did you take the money to Mrs. Phelps?"
Gracey: "I only took MY money! And she said it was too late for her to buy me a book at the book order! and I was really sad!"
Me: "gracey, I told you we weren't buying books this time!"
Gracey: " But it is MY MONEY!! and I will buy what I want!!"
Me: "what did the bill look like? did it have a 2 and a 0 on it?"
(trying so hard to bait her!)
Gracey: NO!!!!! It was mine!
Me: " Gracey, did you take bubba's money to play the crane game at Smiths?"
(if you don't all know, she is ADDICTED!!! we let her play once,
telling her she WOULDN'T win , and she DID!! all by herself!)
SOOO.... I move on to josey!!!! and this is what I got......
Needless to say!!!!!.... this is ALL I get out of JOSEY!!! She thinks she is hysterical, and really most of the time she is... It is really hard to keep a straight face through any subject with her!!!
As we finished this topic, with NO RESOLVE....
Blakely continues to say: "But MOMMY.. What are we going to do about my money?"
Daddy: " well, I guess we can take it off of what you owe mom for your new
SPY sunglasses!"
Blakely: "WHAT?!" " I will never have enough money for that new build a bear!?"
Daddy:" Oh you forgot about that?"
Me: " I did! Thanks for reminding me!"
Daddy: "Oops! Sorry Blake!"

You could always do what we do when we can't get the truth out of our kids. Lock them in the basement with the lights out and tell them the boogie man is going to get the truth out of them.
Anna...your parenting advice kills me with laughter.
We made the boys go upstairs together the other day to resolve their little lies. We wanted them to come up with the same story. It was SOOOOOOOO funny listening to them bargain and plead with each other to change their side of the story. We never did get the truth...but they did come to an agreement of a story.
That is a lot of money though. I hope it wasn't given to a friend.
Bev,
That picture of Josey is adorable. I hope Blakley's money turns up sometime soon!
I am tagging you with the Husband Tag, check it out on my blog it was alot of fun!
That is so hilarious! Such a typical kid thing. I do that all the time with my kids though, forget we have bargained something and then when they say we owe them allowance, I remember! Great bargaining! (not really sure if that made any sense :-) )
I think you can count all of them out. All of your kids are too cute to do anything wrong! Holy Cow, that picture of Josey. She is gorgeous! I hope you find the money though. Thanks for being such a great friend to me, again that was so nice of you.
Bev I'm sorry, but I tagged you. Just copy and paste the questions from my blog and put them on yours. Then answer them. Sorry, but we want to get to know you better!
That is so funny! You have naughty girls but how can you really be mad when they are that cute?!?! I hope the money is found...thats alot!
