That'll teach her.

Ok, to set a background to this post, my youngest daughter is a LOT like me.  Feisty & what not.

Recently, she's been a bit "rebellious" if that's what you want to call it.  Perhaps it more like Sassy.

One night I was messing with her a bit, mostly going to give her a big hug and she punched me in the gut.  A little later on, she was trying to kick me with a few of the martial arts moves that I was trying to teach my kids.

Well, I grabbed her hands, and she was still trying to kick, so I lifted my left leg up into the tangle of arms & legs, and belted her across the ribs with a good kick.  Nothing so hard it'll bruise or make her cry or anything, but like a good swat on the bottom.

Her eyes got REALLY wide and she looked at me differently then.  Her big sister was there, and her eyes were almost as big too.

I turned to them and asked... "You believe me now that I was a trained fighter?"

So, she calmed down trying to hit & kick at me in a form of showing her sass.

Last night, she got back on her high horse again, when I asked her if she wanted to go with me to pick up the pizzas from Figaro's.
Her immediate response was "Only if you let me watch the Mummy Returns in my room".

I went to get the pizzas, when I returned home, I grabbed the Mummy dvd series and hid them in my room.
She can watch them when I'm ready to let her.

So far as I know, she still hasn't apologized for acting like a total brat last night.  If she keeps this up, I might keep her from watching all sorts of movies as its her favorite thing to do.  OR perhaps, the TV or DVD player in her room will be removed.

The biggest reason why she has a TV & DVD player in her room, is that she has space for them, and so that way Ellie and I can watch movies that we don't want the kids watching yet, in our front room with the decent sound system.

Well, I suppose that's All I have to say about that...
