When you have children, you morph into this really "cool" parent that really isn't that cool at all. If you have read any of my writings you will understand that my warped sense of humor is magnified by 3! Life for me has taken so many turns in the last couple of months that it is difficult to know whether I should sit and laugh or bury my face in my hands and cry. Well, the crying option really isn't an option, so let's just toss that one out the finger printed window! Let's go back for a minute.... I AM SOOOO COOL! And why is it 'uncool' to say the word 'cool'?? I am confused. I guess it could be like my mother saying 'groovy' but naw, not really! I'm still cool! I want to get a shirt to wear that says, "I am Bryanna, Lauren and Rylie's COOL MOM"! I can wear it everyday when I drop them off and pick them up at school.
Bryanna is starting Junior High this year. I am getting instructions little by little about what I am allowed to do and what is a definite 'NO-NO'. What this child, that has been around me for 12 years now, doesn't remember (and why is that anyway) is that she is giving me the best ammunition EVER! I am in fact taking notes on her instructions (you know where this is going right?) very carefully. I am dotting every little eye with a "roll", and crossing every 'T' with my fingers behind my back while nodding my head up and down.
I thank God everyday that my girls have my sense of humor. The crazy, warped, fall down laughing before someone else laughs at you sense of humor! The insanity they bring to my life is the most loving affection a mother could ask for! That, and a sticky watermelon flavored kiss!! Mwah!
