You Know You’re a Mom When-sDAZE

You know you’re a mom when…you find yourself scrubbing a football helmet and you don’t even mind.

You know you’re a mom when…you are wrapping electric tape around your football player’s waist of his pants before practice so they stay on his skinny little body, but you aren’t entirely sure it helps as you watch him constantly adjust and hike up his pants all through practice.

You know you’re a mom when…the only after school snacks left in the house are nutritious and your children declare that there’s nothing to eat.

You know you’ve been a mom for a while when…you look up high into a tree and see your child happily perched and you don’t even care.

You know you’re a mom when…your children view cleansing their bodies as some sort of parental torture.

You know you’re a mom of many when…you look at the calendar and are relieved you only have one after school activity to worry about that day.

You know you’re a mom who just sent her Kindergartner to the first day of school when…you find Mom leaping with joy through the quiet house at nap time. Such bliss. Such joy.

You know you’re a mom when…you find yourself yelling at your child that the baby is still sleeping so be quiet, dang it!

You know you’re a weird mom when…your response to your one-year-old telling you things is “bloosh blash” because that’s what it sounds like she said. Oh, and you make it her new nickname. I love my bloosh blash baby!
