1. An early morning rainstorm will inevitably fill children with visions of school closure, despite the need for several feet of rain in order for that to happen. 2. A hole in one’s favorite pair of shorts is a tragic, tragic loss. 3. The highlight of the weekend was going to the zoo and [...]  | August 30th, 2010 | Tags: motherhood, weekend | Category: chaos, children, motherhood | 7 comments I have a pair of khaki capris that I love. They are comfy, but I don’t feel fat in them. They are cute and they go with just about everything. But there’s a flaw. The flaw is that they are khaki. Khaki does not withstand dirty fingers or Popsicle face very well. They [...] **Warning** For those family and friends who consider certain subjects to be “too much information” or TMI, please avert your eyes and return at a later date. I do not wish to offend. For those of you who are now morbidly curious, read on. But don’t say I didn’t warn you!**Warning** Today, I intend [...] My 7 year old son wrote this little story at school. I’ll edit the spelling and punctuation so it’s easier to read, but the words are all his. “Hi, my name is Monkey. I want to marry a banana. Will you marry me?” “I will,” said Banana. “Banana would you marry monkey?” “I will.” [...] You know you’re a mom when…it takes you 2 1/2 weeks to go to the doctor when you are sick because it’s too much of a hassle.

You have your very own entourage. They will follow you EVERYWHERE. The bathroom, the basement, the shower…if you go there, they will follow. 2. Children provide built-in, free entertainment. You can watch a kid knock down a tower and laugh countless times. And the crazy things you can get them to do is [...] When I was a child, one of my favorite books was called Sam’s All Wrong Day. It was about a little boy who had everything go wrong in his day, but at the end of the day, it turned out to be a good day despite all that went wrong. I loved that book [...] 1. You’ve outgrown your minivan. 2. You’ve outgrown your kitchen table. 3. You don’t find it a big deal to take ONLY four kids to the store. 4. Your kids are ok when you count out the M&M’s you give them so it’s fair for everyone. 5. You do 5 loads of laundry in [...] Yup, that’s me. I’m the coolest mom EVER! Wanna know why? Because I willingly purchased Reese’s Puffs cereal and I’m letting the kids have a late-over. I don’t buy box cereal unless it’s on a super-sale because it takes us all of 2.3 seconds to eat the whole box. I refuse to pay $4 [...] About 7p.m. Me: Hey honey, how’s your day? I haven’t heard from you all day, so I thought I’d see how your day was going. DH: It’s fine, just busy. Been in meetings all day. How did your day turn out? Anything exciting? Me: Not really.
