You Know You're a Mom

When...

You can't wear your best outfit because it doesn't match your sling.

You have astounding medical skills that can magically make boo-boo's better with a hug and a kiss.

You can navigate a dark room like a ninja; not stepping on toys that will wake your sleeping children.

Somehow you just know where your children are in the home at all times. It's like a built in tracking system or something. Many Dad's are missing this 'app'. Hehehe...

Your children really believe you have eyes in the back of your head and you don't deny it just to keep them guessing.

You turn to respond whenever anyone calls out, "Mommy!" A.N.Y.O.N.E.

And because of the statement above you also frequently threaten to change your name to 'Daddy'.

You often survive on less than 4 hours of sleep.

You are not phased when the public bathroom stall door doesn't close. Your bathroom door at home doesn't close either. Huubie has looked it over a lot too. He can't figure out the problem... Sigh...

You can prepare another child's lunch while nursing a baby. (Explain to me why these skills can not be listed on a resume?!)

And I am sure there are more... This is just my short list I came up woth. Hehehe... Share your list below!

I would have to add that you know you're a mom when you don't wear white pants anymore because every time you put them on they end up stained.

The GPS app is soooooo true!!! And so true that men totally miss it. Thanks so much for stopping by to comment on my little jailbird. Sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you. Since our little escapade to pick up Cooper at the police station it's been tough to find the time to get back to everyone. Sorry, but your sweet words on the matter made it easier to get through.

Lots of yummy love,

I also stopped wearing earrings when my kids were little because they would grab them in my ears. Ouch!
