First I have to say I have a truly wonderful husband and I think my rant last night left the impression that I was mad at him. Not entirely true. I was peeved that I was not doted on for Mother's Day, but honestly, I am pretty doted on the rest of the year. So babe if you're checking in here ever, I'm sorry for seeming ungrateful.
Second, I never for one second take for granted my two healthy children. I know I rant and blither about the mundane details of my 'stay-at-home' existence, but I would not have it any other way. I am blissfully (and perhaps this is directly related to lack of sleep) happy to be here in my life. I thank God every day that I was blessed with these kids and for some reason He sees fit to trust their life to me. So I apologize for seeming ungrateful, I hope you know that most of my ranting is--while truthful--for entertainment. And it is healthy to vent, right?
And no, none of your comments prompted this post. I just have a couple of friends going through tough times and it makes me even more grateful for what I have.
Okay now for the funny (to me anyway) story...
This morning I was sweeping up Play-Doh. Stop laughing, that's not the funny part. Little m, age 18 months, is in the living room watching.
"Little m, can you please pick your blocks up and put them in the box for Momma?"
"Mo-ommm" She says while tilting her head to the side and slumping her shoulders. I am not making this up. She totally got that from watching Little d. She doesn't even speak in two word sentences yet. But she understands everything. Even how to convey distaste for chores.
And a little PS to Miss Leslie. No I do not wish you to bite your tongue for your comment. But we are not officially trying for number three until June. (Meaning I would not be upset in the least for the other reason for cravings...color me crazy.)

Tee hee. Being the mother of three I think everyone should experience it. Our oldest was 8 and our middle daughter was 6 when #3 showed up. I miss the little boy he was. He is 16 now and has been shaving for 4 years now. Not my baby any more. Check out my blog I'll post one of my favorite photos of him and his dad.
I was a little bit upset at my hubby about mothers day this year. He went to a playoffs game, which I was ok with but then did nothing at all for mother's day. I was pretty upset, mostly becuase I played single mom the week before which was not easy and thought Id at least get a card. I felt bad for being upset afterwards. Your 18 month old sounds adorable. We plan to be trying for number 3 soon also ;)
