Quote of the Day

September 27, 2005

said by me during a particularly loud and rowdy dinner last night.

“Will you shut your mouths and eat your dinner already.”

Hearing muffled laughter I look over to see six children, with closed mouths, banging forks full of food against their lips.

And I laughed, while silently cursing them, like mothers have been doing since time began, I hope you have children just like you.

    This is right up there with, “Go to sleep! One more peep, and you’re in big trouble!” Followed by a chorus of “Peep, peep, peep!”

    Or, how about telling your kids, “It’s bedtime, go jump in bed and I’ll come give you a kiss.” Only to go up and find them actually jumping in their beds.

    ~sigh~ Kids!!
