When Chaos Surrounds You Remember…

Everything is okay in the end,

 if it’s not ok,

then it’s not the end.

Do they make baby bibs for 8 year olds?

I have to stop asking my child “Where is your napkin?”

I already know where it is! 

It’s on the floor, underneath the dinner table

which apparently is a port hole to another dimension.

It’s a cave where he has to crawl over everyone’s feet, wearing a miner’s hat for 20 minutes during mealtime.

 

uhhh…I miss high chairs.

Little Boys Don’t Use Napkins…

Why does the phrase “Use Your Napkin”

trigger a knee-jerk reaction for a child

to immediately wipe his mouth on his sleeve?

Great Movie Endings

Some of the most enjoyable and memorable movies are the ones with great endings.

Most of my favorites  ended with a great song and dance routine.

“Footloose”…great ending.

“Dirty Dancing”…great ending.

“Grease”…great ending.

“Gone With The Wind”….okay, there was no musical number at the end 

but wouldn’t it have been great

if right after Rhett says he doesn’t give a damn,

Scarlett breaks into the Gloria Gaynor song “I Will Survive” and dances around the house with Mammy?

If you’re playing cards in a Poker game for more than 20 minutes and you haven’t figured out who the pasty is yet…

IT’S YOU.

Stains that aren’t worth even trying…

My child can’t find a black crayon in a box of 12,

But he CAN find the only permanent marker in drawer full of junk.

Time Management For Moms

Two rules of thumb in my house:

When you hear the Oven Timer go off,

that means “Time Out” is over…

When you hear the Smoke Alarm,

that means Dinner is Ready!

He Can Hear The Ice Cream Truck In The Next County

My son can’t turn over a sofa cushion to look for the TV remote,

But he can lift the entire sofa over his head to shake out coins for the ice cream truck.

What Mothers Fear Most

Having a baby comes with a lot of worries

But after a few weeks of sleep deprivation

The only things you really fear are

Doorbells

Telephones

Garbage Trucks

and Barking dogs.

A Time When Your Child Really Needs To Talk To You

They say “Timing is Everything”

When you’re talking about children,

“everything” is a question and the

 ”timing” is never during the commercial break

My child only needs to ask me questions when

I’m on the phone

OR

In the shower

OR

Talking to someone else

OR

Blow drying my hair

OR

Naked

OR

Wrapping his Birthday presents
