Baby Drill Sergeant

This morning I was trying to get Jenna to cooperate in getting herself ready for school.  She is normally very easy to deal with but this morning, she was in slow motion.  I had to tell her twice to do most things.  After she drank her milk didn't eat her breakfast (don't worry she ate a breakfast bar on the way to school) the following happened:

Me: Jenna, go brush your teeth.

SILENCE...

Me: Jenna, go brush your teeth now.

Crickets are heard chirping...

Then out of nowhere I hear Ashley say, "NOW!"

That took care of that.  Jenna RAN to the bathroom to brush her teeth.  Thank you, Baby Drill Sergeant!   You made my morning a bit easier.
