Top 5 Things I Never Thought I'd Say...

There comes a time in every young mother's life when she realizes that no amount of preparation could prepare her for the very real scenarios she would be faced with.  She is, of course, the primary entity responsible for teaching her charges to be socially adept and respectable to the rest of the world.  Of course, this comes at a time when she overestimates the reaches of Common Sense...especially in the minds of people who happen to be under the age of 10 years old.

The following are 5 things I never thought I would utter but have actually escaped from my lips...


1. "When borrowing someone's underwear, PLEASE, wash them afterward!"

2.  "Quit undressing the Wiseman.  It's not historically accurate!"

3.  "Holy Leopard Print Lycra..You must break off the t.p. BEFORE using it!"

4.   "Who keeps chewing off Barbie's fingers?"

5.  "I don't care what she did to your underwear...sitting on her face is NOT nice!"

Let's face it, it's not pretty.  In fact, on ocassion it's like a war zone around here .  BUT somehow, it's worth it.
