It would have been funny if...

It wasn't so darn mean.

Ella's been a little violent with poor Eli lately. Yesterday Eli was standing by the computer chair making faces at me (probably telling me to get off!) when along comes Ella, pushing her shopping cart, which she proceeded to use to run him over! She was reprimanded and made to apologize. Chris caught the action from the kitchen doorway and nearly had to leave the room so as not to let Ella see him laughing!

Five minutes later, we were all in the living room. Out of nowhere (like a bat out of hell?) comes Ella and her evil shopping cart, heading straight for Eli....either this girl is blind or just asking for trouble! Chris and I narrowly averted the second crash, Ella was scolded and apologized, and off she went with her shopping cart. Not 30 seconds later she came careening in to the living room once again on a mission to upend her brother! Chris and I started shouting, "Ella! What on earth......" and she ran in to a wall, slipped on her own socks, and ended up in a pile on the floor herself.

I took the shopping cart away.

Sandra! So good to see a comment from you on my blog! And yes, it was mean...but this story is still really really funny. I'm sure Eli will get his revenge in a year or so.

Ha! She better watch out; when he gets older and bigger he'll be seeking revenge!

She's like an angry old lady in the market with that thing. Ha!
