Little Girl Lays Down The Law In Adorable Note To Mom (PHOTO)

It's no secret that notes written by little kids are pretty much the best, especially when it proves them to be way too stern or cynical for their age. A few days ago one of our readers submitted a hilarious birthday card she made for her dad at the age of five, and now yet ANOTHER reader has submitted an adorable note from their youth. Dana S. writes:

"My sister found this little gem stashed away in the storage room. I'm not sure what prompted me to write this to my mom. I might have been forced to reiterate house rules, or maybe I really did think I was boss. Nicole is my younger sister, who would have been an innocent (yes, even angelic) 4-year old at the time."

Whatever reason Dana penned this adorable letter, we especially enjoyed the last part, which reads: 'P.S. Why do you and dad hate me, and why do you think Nicole is an angel?'

We can't get enough of these, so please readers, if you any more of you have dug up hilarious things you wrote as a kid, send them to [e-mail]!

It is amazing to me that so many would think the worst of this child. Rather than deal with rather bratty behavior by a 7-1/2 year old, I asked Dana to write down and reiterate some of the words that I spoke to her about the situation at hand...and in this case 'No meant no' &' She was to do what was asked' & 'She could not get everything that she wants'. The fact that she wrote her comment about Nicole at the end was so funny to us. Nicole has equally had her voice about who is 'the favorite'...and surprise!-what sisters don't? (I know, I am one of 4 sisters). Trust me, these sisters, now 23 &19, love each other, and we love them both way beyond the 275 words allowed on this post!

Looks like this bossy kid would be a good candidate for the show "Toddlers & Tiaras"

The story may very well be true, and the sentiments expressed in the original note, real, but why does HP insist on posting phony facsimiles? The alleged original note that is pictured with this article was obviously the work of an adult hand and made to try and appear to be a child's. The only thing missing is a few backwards letters. This is not the first time HP has attempted this scam, and it's just not necessary. The words are either poignant or they are not. Phonying up a note or list only stretches the credibility of the editor.

there's a projective element to the note. she (back then) seemed to be demanding what she really wanted for herself. consistency. also liked the plea for equal time/attention at the bottom.

It's called "the DENYING FORCE" and it's part of the reason human beings are in such a miserable condition today. Children take these concepts and internalize them. Sad.

Gotta love when a kid gives an answer to their own question even before they ask it.

It sounds like you still have the lead on self importance.

Do you think Barack Obama should send this (minus the comment to Nicole) to Mitch McConnell? Do you think it would do any good? :-).

Mitch must already know that no means no. Unfortunately, it seems that no is the only word he does know.

Kids are pretty expressive when given a chance.

My nephew when prearing for his first confession had trouble thinking up sins to confess, my mother (his grandmother) suggested that she and he write a list of each others' sin to be confessed. My mother wrote out "I need to listen to my parents and grandparents more" and "I need to work to be more patient with others" for my nephew to confess. My nephew spent an hour writing out a list for her (and complained that he could have come up with more, but ran out of time). Top of the list for his grandmother to confess "I am too bossy" followed by "I yell too much." He managed to get a list of 25. He even asked my mother if she read the whole list to the priest after she left the confessional.

My mother took it in good humor...but she never suggested writing out confession lists again.

My favorite of all my daughter's notes:

"Mom: I am okay but I have been kidnaped. If you put the pan of brownies in front of my door I will be releast. Jeannie."

Awwww. Reading your post makes me want to put down the birth control pills I just picked up after reading the note from lil' Dana.

Not that it's relevant, but Jeannie is adopted. When we were in England we adopted two babies, a boy and a girl, not related. They were a year apart and they always felt like twins. I think they still do. Jeannie is the smartest and funniest little girl I ever knew. One day she came home from kindergarten and I asked what she'd done that day. She said, "We sang a song, about pants and birdies." I was mystified, and she sang it for me: "Sing a song of six pants ..." She had a hundred of them. She wrote great poems and charged ten cents apiece for them, I remember. She wrote President Carter (she was nine) and asked to be nominated to the Supreme Court. I can't remember everything, but that kid was a walking circus.
