WHAT DID YOU USE?

Today Paislee wanted me to carry her stroller FILLED with stuff down the stairs so it could be by her while she was eating lunch. My response was "No sweetie keep your stroller in the toy room and you can play with it right after lunch." So when she started throwing a fit about it I then looked at her and said, "Paislee you want it downstairs then figure out a way to get the stroller downstairs." As I went to change the laundry I heard a giggle from the bottom of the stairs, I looked down and she was standing grinning from ear to ear because she did figure out a way to get the stroller down the stairs. Well then after lunch she asked me to carry her stroller back up the stairs. Which I responded with, "Paislee you got it down the stairs by yourself so you need to figure a way to get it back up the stairs." She started crying and saying, "I just can't mom, my leg hurts." I said "Paislee you got it down the stairs so you can get it back up the stairs. How did you get the stroller downstairs?" She looked at me and responded with, "Mom I used my strong muscles to get it down the stairs." I laughed and then said, "Paislee then use your strong muscles to get it back up the stairs." And she did!!!
