Motherhood Moments (I’ve Lost Count)

I was numbering these motherhood moments, but I have totally lost count. Here’s the latest from our house…

This is why we don’t have a dog.

Apparently, the Elefun game seemed like a good place to hide candy wrappers…

Some rockers smash guitars, our little punks smash microphones (or maybe it recoiled on its own from the singing).

I said: “Charlie, we are going to visit aunt Amy.
Pick out some pajamas and a change of clothes, please.”
He heard: Suitcase!

I guess he wanted to read and blow his nose at Aunt Amy’s.

“Mama, I yawned and sauce came out!” (vomit) – Sydney (3) Maryville, TN
My husband has my babies all by himself this week. When I was leaving town today, I asked Walker if he thought they would be ok . He said, "Of course, Mama. You left us food and I have a light saber." -- Walker (5) Tupelo, MS
"You are really annoying, and it is NOT opposite day." -- Bryce (6) to Reed (8) Eagain, MN
"Mom: Do you think you can be good at school the rest of the week – it’s only two more days… Son: I’m not sure… “I can’t tell the future and I don’t have a working time machine.” – Ethan (6) Milwaukee, MI
