The BLM is quite a talker. She often talks so much that I have to ask her for a few moments of silence because my ears hurt. And her talking requires a response, not just a set of listening ears. So, typically my mouth hurts and my brain hurts from having to have all of this stimulating conversation.
When I do ask for quiet, I will be rewarded with a few minutes of silence. Then the talking begins again.
So, I say, "Chandler, Momma asked you to be quite for a little while."
And she says, "No. I was just saying it to me." or "No. I was just telling myself."
I just wanted to share it. This little saying has done a lot for me over the past week while I was out of town. Everytime I think it or say it, it has made me giggle.

Oh, Big Girl does that too! The strange thing is her preschool teacher thinks she's so quiet and never talks, but around family she never stops!
My oldest does that too and he's eight!! He's been that way since he was able to talk...sometimes I'll say.."who are you talking to??" and he replies "oh..just myself.."
You seen your pic at Barely Keeping it all Together yet? HAHAHAHA That's you right? Do we have the right person?
PS I LOVE the name Chandler!
My oldest child is the same way. If I ask him to please be quiet for a few minutes he mumbles under his breath, "Oh darn it." He's 3. And also pulls the I'm-just-talking-to-myself BS. Loving your blog!
