One night while J.T. was away, I kept trying to herd all of the kids to bed. In the midst of the chaos, Russell kept insisting, "I want do a-thing else!!!" What did he mean??? Finally, I realized that I had told the kids to clean up because we weren't doing 'anything else' but going to bed!
Russell keeps pulling the mini drawers out of my desk but he can't fit them back in. In frustration, he left the room and headed downstairs. Since he rarely travels there alone, I asked what he was doing. This was Russell's reply: "I getting a screwdriver so I can fix that drawer." OK, then.
However, some of Russell's plans are not so great. For example, when I told him to stop blowing the whistle near me, he said (you guessed it) "NO!"
While making hot chocolate, I doled out 6 mini marshmallows for each of us. I left mine on the counter and became curious to see if Russell could resist them while my milk was warming. His were long gone. The result? He looked at mine and rearranged them before diving in and eating 3 of mine. :)
