Contact Lens...Ummm I don't think so!

These past few weeks have been a trip. The girl's camp is over :( they are not happy with it, but they are happy to be able to spend the next 2 weeks with Chelly and Dillon before school starts. Before camp was over they have since learned SO much. They have learned their full name, how to spell their first name, their address, their city and state, and their birthday. They also have learned several songs and prayers, such as the Johnny Appleseed Prayer (love that one). They had a wonderful parents night. Coda was little miss muffet and cher was the spider. too cute. They were very proud. Coda won an award for the best singer and Cher won an award for the most loving child.
So you have been reading that we have been having "movie" repeat problems, here are a few more. I am on the way to drop them off at camp. Cher and Coda are in the back of the car FIGHTING. Cher is screaming at Coda, I am referying and Coda says to Cher, "I don't care if you are growing on my ass!" I pull over and ask her where she heard that? She says, "Home Alone" I am like, "you did not hear that from Home Alone." "ya huh," she says. That night we decide to re-watch home alone. In the very beginning of the movie, Kevin does not want to sleep with the kid that pees the bed, so he asks his brother if he could sleep with him. His brother says, he would not sleep with Kevin, if he was growing on his ass. Well she was right. *SIGH*
Then the other night I am putting Cherokee to bed. She goes to the bathroom first. While she is in there, she says, "look ma." I said, "what am I looking at?" she says, "It crawled back up!" as he is intermittingly letting her pee out. Okay we have watched TOO much Breakfast Club.

Last night topped the cake. I put Coda up to bed at 7:30. If I put them to bed together, they party. So Coda goes first because she LOVES her sleep. I put Cher up at 8:15. When I go up Coda is knocked out. I go down stairs and watch King of Queens with Tone. about 5 minutes later I hear giggling. I said, "did you hear that?" He says, "No I did not hear anything." about 10 Minutes later I hear a wrenching scream come from Cherokee and Dakota darts down the steps like a loon. I say what is wrong? she says, "Cher has something in her eye." Cher comes down the steps rubbing her eye. She says, "Coda put a sticker in my eye." I send Coda upstairs about to ring her neck and pull cher down to look at her eye. She will not stay still so I sit on top of her, her arms under me, because she would not let me look at her eye. I tell Tony to hold her head, he says, "what do I do I am afraid I am going to hurt her." Iam panic stricken, nervous, worried, angry all at the same time. I loosen a corner from under her top eye lid, and notice it is a pointy silver sticker. I get the corner out and Tony pulls the rest out after. I lay her on the couch and tell her not to move and ask tony to give her a cold rag. I go upstairs, very upset and angry wanting to strangle Coda. "What would pocess you to put a sticker in your sister's eye?" "Iwas putting contacts in like chelly," she says. I explain that if this had been more serious Cherokee could loose her vision and her eye could have been really hurt and damaged. I explain the doctor GAVE Chelly contacts, that mommy and Daddy don't have contacts because the doctor did not give them too us. I explained that Mommy was very scared, and yes mommy yelled. She says, "you hurt my feelings." I said, "Coda, Mommy was very scared, would you like it if Cherokee did not have an eye? You would feel really bad if Cherokee had no eye because you put a sticker in it. She said she would. I toldf her you never put any thing in yours or anyone elses eyes, ears, nose, or your moth unless it is food. I gave Cherokee the same lecture. I demonstrated what life would be like without being able to see out of one eye by covering it. She was NOT happy. Well I think I scared them out of doing anything else drastic...to their eyes anyway.
This morning Coda woke up and appologized to cherokee, and said she did not want Cherokee to loose an eye. We were in the shower this morning, I was still shaken up by last night. I felt scared and upset that the girls saw me so frantic and angry and scared. Coda was sitting in the bottom of the tub while we were showering, and she was playing with her colored soaps, making them talk to each other. I hear her say, "One of these days I am going to find your village and burn it down!" I said, "Now where did you hear THAT from??"........THE SMURFS. *SIGH*
