Because I'm lazy!

So some parents need to worry about watching what they say when it comes to their language…I don’t have that problem, I just have to worry about the things that I say that could later be used against me.
Somewhere along the way, Ayris decided to become *lazy* like her momma. On very limited occasions (and by limited occasions I mean at least 2-3 times a day) I’ll be engrossed in something (like a mommy blog) at which point, I realize I need something…in the past, I could get away with sweetly asking Ayris if she’d just get it for me (nothing major like running to the store or anything…just simple things like grabbing the wipes or bringing me a toy that Asher wanted, etc), she would comply, all without my having to stop what I was doing. THEN SHE ENTERED HER WHY? PHASE…
Mommy: Ayris, can you bring me the wipes?
Ayris: WHY???
Mommy: Because Mommy is lazy right now.
Ayris: OK.
It continued like that for a while…she’d still *help me out* but as of about a week ago, the conversation is more like this:
Mommy: Ayris, can you get me the wipes?
Ayris: NO.
Mommy: WHY? (Now I’m the one asking why!!!)
Ayris: Because I’m lazy right now.
Seriously, it’s not even that she’s being a smart*ss because she’s not old enough for that currently. She’s just picking up mommy’s bad behavior! Shame on me.
In addition to this thought, I’ve never believed those hollywood moms that say they got their bodies back after children by actually chasing around their children…but now I’m wondering if maybe they just aren’t as *lazy* as I am =)
