Translation; Dear Mom, I am never going to talk to you again. I am not going to school and then whatever else it says. P.S. you are mean (like she has to tell me). If I didn't laugh I would have cried.

Nothing Says Your the Worst Mom Ever Like a Letter
The other night Emma had a whopper of a breakdown. I had been shopping earlier in the week and bought her a couple of outfits I wanted to save for a special occassion. My first big mistake was showing her new clothes and then telling her she couldn't wear them yet. She asked me at least a million times over the next couple of days if she could wear them and I said no. Well this night she asked me again if she could wear her new green shirt for St. Patrick's Day. I actually said yet, but before I got it out in anticipation of my no she completely fell apart. She threw a tantrum for one hour straight. She went to her room, kicked things, screamed, threw out dirty looks and truly I have to admit that I did absolutely nothing wrong. I totally kept my cool. Anyways we had a nice long chat once she was finished with her tantrum, ended with a kiss and a hug and her being grounded for the weekend. Anyway the next morning I found this note on my bookcase. She must have written it in her rage. Notice the picture of sweet innocent little her versus the picture of mean mom with the gnarly teeth. Unfortunately it is probably a pretty accurate drawing. Also notice her sign off. Hey mom you are the worst mom ever and you look like a monster... Love, Emma. It just cracked me up and I wanted to share it.

That is hilarious! Personally, I do not think that you look like a monster, nor think that you have those nasty teeth! You are quite gorgeous, that is why you have such cute kids! But I must admit, that was a great story!
I am ROTFL...that means "rolling on the floor laughing," aren't I smart? That is too funny! I am glad you guys have made up. You better save that note. And Stacy, thanks for my long comment...your amazing! Now I don't feel so bad that you leave comments on everyone else's blog, but MINE! And let me remind you, your not a bad mom your a wonderful mom!
I can't believe sweet little Emma would write a letter like that. She must have been totally ticked off at you. It's totally hysterical, make sure you save it for her to look at in a few years. You're a good mom Stac, and thanks for sharing this story with me so that in the future when Sunshine leaves me hateful letters I'll know I'm not the only one.
So glad that you never wrote me a letter like that. What is Emma thinking after a new room and all? However, it did make me laugh.
Yeah, I've already got a note like that from McKenna. It said "I hate you mom!" (several times). So your several steps ahead of me. I beat you in the mean department. Pretty fun to hear kind things about you from your children isn't it?
We'll, I was glad to see she was over it by the Easter Egg Hunt at Grandma Van Wagoner's! Even more glad to hear you could laugh about it and not cry. She's such a cutie - guess she was just having one of those days! You handled it beautifully! xo RC (PS I don't know why my post reads from The Fam ... I'll have to have Shelby fix that for me). Love ya - Rebecca
