Things Motherhood has Taught Me

*Ears are great places to hide Play-doh
*Even Care-bears have trials
*The box is always better than the toy
*Toilets make great swimming pools for all sorts of objects, including small children
*The 3 worst words in the English language are "No," "Mine," and "Why?"
*4 straight hours of sleep can be so refreshing
*Gravity wins every time
*If your kid is having difficulty with speech, just use cuss words--they pick those up the fastest
*"Clean" is relative phrase
*Honesty is the best policy
*Patience is, in fact, a virtue--- not a natural ability
*Band-aids are the ultimate cure-all
*Big boobs aren't as cool as I thought they'd be
*"Child-proof" just means "parent-proof" or "false-sense-of-security"
*Where there's a will, there's a way (see above)
*Who needs crack when you have sugar?
*I now understand why we are supposed to be like little children. They forgive, they forget, and they see the best in everyone.
*Not all Crayola markers are washable
*My biggest accomplishments are those of my children

I dunno ... I kinda love big boobs. Except I can't fit into any of my old clothes cuz of 'em.

Ha ha ha! I hate toilet swimming pools. Man you're funny- and honest.

Patience went out the window for me the day I came home from the hospital with Will. I'm still looking for it.

The box is always the best toy! Patience is indeed a virtue, one I am working on. By the way you look gorgeous in the swimming pool picture below. No joke!
