Mothers Day~

Mothers Day is just about here. Despite being Mom 7 times over, well maybe because of being a mom 7 times over, Mothers Day has always been an...ummmmm... experience.

While I try and maintain a Motherly smile, and try and relax and enjoy the day- Here is to all the Moms out there- God love ya.

It isn't always easy, and it isn't always fun. If it was, EVERYONE would do it. But they don't. WE DO.

Here is to Us. The ones who, change the diapers and wipe the noses. The ones who have eatten the kids plate leftovers, for our dinner. Who have been seen, in public...wearing a shirt with spit up/ snot/ or other kid related substance. More than once. For those of us who make cupcakes from scratch, and those who bought them at the store. For those moms that bring in a paycheck and for those that don't. For all of us who put the kid(s) first- here's to us.

Nobody ever said we were perfect, but we try!!

have you ever...

Wondered if messes really do make themselves?

Wondered if a 5 year old doesn't tattle about it, did it really happen?

Wished there really was a laundry fairy?

Wished you could go back in time, then change your mind 'cause here isn't so bad after all?

Really wanted to sit on the couch, eating bonbons all day?

Wondered if you really did know everything at 13?

Lived through the drama, and wonder why you thought it was such a big deal in the first place?

Come up with "the perfect thing to say" WHEN you wanted to say it?

Wondered why the heck its called a "funny bone" when it's anything BUT funny.

Started to ask"how in the world..." and stop yourself because you really REALLY didn't want to know the answer?

Wondered how every square inch bathroom surface can be covered in water, and the kid is still dirty?

Wondered how something so cute, can stink SO bad? (And I'm not just talking about the kids either!! Wink wink- love you honey!!)

Wondered how in the world can I teach these little people to grown up to be more human than monster?

Been amazed that they actually are?

Wacky weather

Here is what I found in my camera. It was less than 72 hours between- Crazy. But the kids liked it!
