Lazy Mama

So my little Kyle, my 4 year old little angel, has been going to a babysitter a few days a week lately. I am not sure that this is as easy of a schedule change as it should be...

Every morning when I try to wake him up, I fight with him...

He puts the covers back over his head.

He keeps his eyes closed while he tells me "I'm sweepin' mama go away".

He turns the fan (which I had just turned off) back on HIGH! then covers back up his head with the blanket!

I try to tickle him... he laughs in his "sweep" and keeps his eyes closed and tells me to "stop it mama, I'm sweepin'"

Then, I kiss him. Kyle does NOT like mama kisses, he wipes it away, the whole time with his eyes closed.

The other morning I asked him, "If you are sleeping, how can you tell it's mama kissin' you and not Daddy?"

"I just know these things mama" he says with his eyes still closed, "besides, your kisses are yucky and Daddy's aren't."

After these morning fights, I finally get him to the sitter who is a friend of mine. One night at work, she tells me, "Kyle called you lazy today."

"What?" I asked shocked, well, sort-of.

Apparently one of the other little kids told Kyle that his mama looked like another kids mama. Kyle said "You're right, only my mama is lazy".

When the babysitter asked him why he said that, he replied, "she just is. She NEVER wants to get up in the morning!!"
