Coburn Kids

So I was reading a friend’s blog today, about her daughter calling her the worst Mommy in the world.  This was both my daughters Gena and Adessa the last week.  I was the worst mommy, Gena was never ever going to give me a Mother’s day present (I asked her to clean and she refused to pick up her mess). Then Adessa had an accident yesterday and refused to change. So I’ve won the “worst Mommy in the world” award twice in 5 days. Though yesterday at the Doctors they both composed songs about me being the best mommy in the universe so all is forgiven apparently.

What made me write about this though is my 4 year old and what she told me. This is a serious case of a spiritual lesson gone horribly wrong!!  Adessa threatened that when she grew up, just to make me mad, she was going to smoke!  Wait… what?  The lesson 2 weeks ago in primary was about the Word of Wisdom.  How we should take care of our bodies and never smoke, never do drugs, eat healthy, exercise.  All the good stuff.  Except now my 4 year old daughter is threatening to SMOKE when she gets older if I don’t let her have her way. This is the worst way to punish me in her eyes I guess. Talk about a Primary lesson turned upside-down! I’m terrified of this girl when she becomes a teenager.
