Temper, Temper

So we went out to dinner last night and I got my drink to go. Actually it was the drink that Grace and I were sharing. This fact will become important as the story unfolds. Any way, as soon as we got in the car Ella began to pitch a fit because she wanted the cup. Thinking it was kind of cute and funny that she wanted it so badly, I gave it to her to she what she would do.
Apparently she was thirsty.
Really thirsty.
This is Grace, bring Grace (don't ask) and waiting very patiently for her turn with the cup. All she wanted was a quick sip of lemonade.
Well, Ella didn't like this idea very much.
She was obviously not in the mood to share.As Grace was finishing up her turn, I think I actually heard Ella saying, "Give it back now! I want it now! I am going to keep screaming until I get my cup back." Seriously, her communication skills are well above average. Grace finished her turn and gave the cup back. Ella miraculously recovered from the heart failure she had been suffering from only moments before.
This time we heard her say, "Ha, you guys are suckers!"

Things do not look good for us. She is really getting out of hand.

Wow I love the manipulation caught frame by frame. My Grace does the same thing and I too am a sucker.

What cute girls! I wonder if that's what I have to look forward to with 2 boys - only they won't be as cute when they're fighting.
