Caibs Comments.

As I sat down to design the vinyl lettering for Chance's quote I got to thinking it would be fun to have a wall of quotes by my kids. Which lead to,me,trying to think of what I could use as quotes from each of my kids.

The first thing that popped into my mind was:

"Go lay down"
-Caib Brian-

Explanation: Caib has always been a very temperamental child. He has been corrected MANY times for yelling at his siblings. He always seems to be able to recognize when he needs to calm down and fix the way he handles himself. This is one of his fixes. When someone (usually Braden) begins irritating him to the point he feels like exploding or attacking he turns to them and says, "Go lay down."

For those of you who don't know where that comes from or can't put it into context ;) That's what Caibs dad tells the dogs when they are in the way.

Very unique to Caib. I LOVE the way he has learned to control himself in his own way. He never would take my suggestions. He just always comes up with his own and puts them into action.

I'm going to have to think about the other three kids for a day or two and see what quotes I can come up with for each of them.

I love this idea! I should have thought of this a few years ago before their quotes became liberally laden with...well you get the idea.

Hmmmm!
