During dinner -
"It is going to rain, so make sure you go outside and put all of the kids toys away."
My Response: "Why do you have to be so rude, why can't we just do it together?"
"I am not the one that got them all out."
After cleaning up kitchen from dinner, putting away indoor and outdoor toys and getting in a pi**ing match over what I did today- I went to get diapers...
"Can you pick me up a snack for later?"
