To the Love!

Focusing is not Meg's strength.

Try as I might, there's always something to take her attention away from the task at hand.

A couple of weeks ago, the task at hand was her book report.

When she got up from the table for the 50th time ...

Me: Megan! Focus, for the love ...

Megan: Amanda! Did you hear mom? She wants me to 'focus to the love'!

Me: Not TO the love, FOR the love.

Megan: To the love, Amanda! Focus to the love!!

Me: FOR THE LOVE!!!

At this point, she and Amanda start dancing around chanting, "Focus to the love! Focus to the love!"



Ugh.
