The other day, I legit chased my toddler around my street with no pants. ZERO pants. He was running all over the street and I didn’t have time to think about whether or not neighbors could see my saggy white rear end peeking out from underneath my shirt. I had a toddler to catch. If you happened to look out of your window and you live on my street… you’re welcome.
Today’s lunch offering of choice was the local Chick-Fil-A. Drive-thu… preorder of course… points on the app + hangry boys. Baby girl hasn’t tasted the magic yet. Dave asked me what I wanted. “Oh, I’m good… I’ll just clean up whatever the boys don’t eat.” Moms… you feel me. We got home and let them go to town on the large spread we bet they wouldn’t finish.
This story ends with me making myself a peanut butter sandwich. That’ll learn me.
The end.
Best thing I’ve heard all night:
“Mom! I flushed the toilet and it almost overflowed but at the last minute it all went down!!!!
Glory be.
My little 2 year-old this morning: “How sleep mama?”
Me: “I slept…okay, but more importantly, I got up to another morning to see your happy face.”
Every moment is a gift. Walk in love and go in peace.
Yesterday, both older boys were instructed to pick up the massive tidal wave of legos covering their bedroom floor. I walk up to check on their progress.
Me to Josh: “Hey Josh, I see you’re reading a book. Why are you reading a book and not picking up your legos?”
Josh: “I’m reading to Sam to help him pick up the legos faster.”
Me: “Really.”
*I can just see it in 20 years- Josh makes local interest news station for this headline: “Local entrepreneur uses newly acquired skills to create unprecedented motivation in employees, resulting in a 100% increase in productivity.*
Let’s hope it’s that and not “Local scam artist was ratted out by his own younger brother and both are now doing time in the state pen for bank fraud.”
Tonight’s dinner convo: “Tornadoes,” “Maelstroms,” “water spouts” & “rare shark spieces.”
1) Thank goodness for YouTube.
2) So. Many. Questions.
3) It’s probably no coincidence that my daily headache starts around dinner time.
