Mom’s Say the Darndest Things
I don’t know about you but sometimes I say things and I wonder, did I really just have to say that?
Maybe I didn’t have to but it did just come out of my mouth.
Usually, this happens when I am on an important phone call or someone is at my house. These random things come out of my mouth when talking to my children. I pause, take a deep breath, and wonder what the person on the other line is thinking? Then, undoubtly my children catch my attention again, the insecure concern of what the other person thought is no longer important. I do think that kids say some of the funniest things, but in reality us mothers take the prize.
Just some of the crazy things that have come out of my mouth when I am speaking to my children…
“Do not run your sister over with the shopping cart!”
“Please don’t wash your hands in the dog bowl.”
“We do not touch our nakey butts on the wall.”
“Don’t smear ketchup on the dog.”
“Is that poop on your toe?”
“Please don’t drive the car on the tv screen.”
“You pooped play-doh!”
“Do NOT wipe your nose on my arm”
“Don’t bite the dog”
“Get your tongue off my arm please” (This was said while on the phone with my academic advisor.)
“Stop eating the couch!”
“Do not run mommy over with trucks”
Ahh.. motherhood.
