A slightly crazy 25 year old with a great husband and two wonderful kids. The only reason one would want to read my inner thoughts is complete boredom or unconditional love.

Funny

This came from a book called Laughter is the Spice of Life. The title is "The Mom Test" by Anonymous. I put *'s by the ones that apply to me (or at least some version of them do)

"You know you're a mom when...

  • You count the sprinkles on each kid's cupcake to make sure they're equal.*
  • You have time to shave only one leg at a time.
  • You hide in the bathroom to be alone. *
  • Your child throws up, and you catch it.
  • Someone else's kid throws up at a party, and you keep eating.
  • You dream that frozen pizzas are on sale and wake up you're so happy.
  • The material possession you want most in life is a minivan.*
  • Your child insists that you read Once Upon a Potty out loud in the lobby of the doctor's office, or, better yet, in the lobby of Grand Central Station, and you do it.*
  • You hope ketchup is a vegetable because it is the only one your child eats.*
  • You cling to the high moral ground on toy weapons, while your child chews his toast into the shape of a gun. *
  • You can't bear the thought of your son's first girlfriend.
  • You can't bear the thought of his wife even more.
  • You find yourself cutting your husband's sandwiches into unusual shapes.
  • You fast-forward through the scene when the hunter shoots Bambi's mother. *
  • You use your own saliva to clean your child's face.*
  • You obsess when your child clings to you on his first day of school, then obsess when he skips in without looking back on his second day.
  • You read that the average five-year-old asks 437 questions a day and feel proud that your kid is above average.*
  • You think at least once a day, I'm not cut out for this job, but you know you wouldn't trade it for anything in the world." *
