Being a Mom is Fun, Except When.......

You have the Flu and you have to keep the kids all day by yourself.

Every piece of clothing you own is on your bedroom floor and you don't know what is clean or dirty anymore.

You can't keep your Christmas tree decorated.

Your 3 year old is sitting on the potty screaming "Mommy come wipe me!!!!"

Your 1 year old smears her breakfast all through her hair and you have to be at church in 20 minutes with everyone looking perfect.

You are in a hurry to get out the door and someone poops their pants.

The kids join together and decide to unroll a roll of toilet paper in the toilet.

Your 1 year old throws a lip liner in the dryer without you seeing and you turn it on.

You go to someone elses house and your son decides to color their white carpet black with a marker.

They knock over a flat screen tv off of its stand. It's not yours either.

They kick your seat while your driving.

They scream at the top of their lungs when you are on the phone. I think they have radar for that or something.

Your at the grocery store and one of them stands on the bread and smashes it. So then you have smashed PB&J's all week.

After the greatest effort is put forth to get out of the house, you suddenly realize you have forgotten something important, like your wallet.

Both of your children decide to throw a huge fit in public and you realize there is nothing you can do but get out of there fast!!! Spanking only makes the fit escalate. I have learned that the hard way.

You have to take a shower with the shower curtain open.

You have to use the bathroom with your child on your lap.

One child decides they don't want to take a nap that day.

You find an old bottle or sippy cup that you haven't seen in months and its growing a garden inside of it.

Welcome to my oh so imperfect life. I love it all so much and wouldn't change a second of it. I think the hardest part is just excepting the fact that nothing has to be perfect and roll with it. Its soooo much funner that way:)
