Education

Things I never knew until I became a Mother:

1. The on/off nozzle on the cleaner sprays really is useful!
2. Check all the appliances before plugging them in to make sure they are "off".
(Especially the blender)
3. Your feet become invisible when hiding behind the kitchen curtains.
4. You can get your house looking halfway decent during naptime.
5. That is the ONLY time it will look decent.
6. When your house is peacefully quiet for more than 2 minutes something is not right.
7. Suprisingly MANY MANY objects fit into the VCR slot
8. Toilet training a child is much like toilet training a dog... Thank goodness for wood floors!
9. Not even oxyclean will clean all the fruit-punch off your white shag rug!
10. Your indoor plants don't like your children's vegetables either.

When you become a mom you resign yourself to long sleepless nights, cold dinners, spit-up on wardrobes, warm kisses and delicious little giggles. Being a mother is a job... no wait a career. I never realized that until I became one, but the pay is the best I've recieved in any job.

Am I alone?




Should I continue posting on my blog? Is there anybody out there?
Mommy doing? Mommy doing? Mommy doing?
This is probably the thing I hear the most of during the day. The Boy likes to know exactly what I'm doing at all times.
I just can't believe how TIME FLIES. The Girl is getting so big, and The Boy is talking so well now. He is the sweetest little boy that keeps my on my toes...constantly. I always wonder where my mother got the pair of eyes in the back of her head. You grow them when you become a mother! Isn't he a knock-out?
