So, here is a conversation between me and Lindsay today, right before I was about to take a shower so that we could go outside and play:

L: “Mommy, can we take the cushions off the couch and stack them so I can jump on them?”
M: “Oh, sweetie, maybe later today because I’m about to take a shower, remember?”
L: “But, I just NEED to jump on them because I’m soooo tired!”
M: “Really? And you think jumping on them will make you less tired?”
L: “Yeah. Can we?”

She’s been using this excuse all the time now and it doesn’t make any sense! Later today she wanted to jump and climb on Jeffy’s back some more and she again said the words, “But I just need to because I’m so tired!” It makes us to giggle. Luckily, she doesn’t stay too worried about things for too long because she was fine once I asked her if she wanted to play some computer games. What did kids do before computers?
