TODAY is..

"Come & TAKE it DAY"

you can't make this stuff up. (read about it here)

all i hafta say is...

somebody's probably goin' to jail..  O_o

only good thing to come out of this holiday for me was a lil' doodle.. 

NOTE to self: you really should make up holidays that benefit EVERYbody..

but not in this way..

sure, cops are benefitting (they won't be bored).. you benefit when you take what you want.

but, if the end result is you're locked up.. are you happy at the end of your *holiday*??

i don't think so.

happy "come & take it day" lol..

just kidding.

if u give a mom a muffin..

there's a GREAT book called If You Give a Moose a Muffin...

this poem is a spin-off of that great book.

it's cute.

makes me wanna write my own.. :)

If You Give A Mom A Muffin....

She'll want a cup of coffee to go with it.
She'll pour herself some.
Her three-year-old will spill the coffee.
She'll wipe it up.
Wiping the floor, she'll find dirty socks.
She'll remember she has to do laundry.
When she puts the laundry in the washer,
She'll trip over boots and bump into the freezer.
Bumping into the freezer will remind her she has to plan for supper.
She will get out a pound of hamburger.
She'll look for her cookbook ("101 Things To Do With a Pound of Hamburger").
The cookbook is sitting under a pile of mail.
She will see the phone bill, which is due tomorrow.
She will look for her checkbook.
The check book is in her purse that is being dumped out by her two-year-old.
She'll smell something funny.
She'll change the two year old's diaper.
While she is changing the diaper, the phone will ring.
Her five-year-old will answer and hang up.
She'll remember she wants to phone a friend for coffee.
Thinking of coffee will remind her that she was going to have a cup.
And chances are...
If she has a cup of coffee,
Her kids will have eaten the muffin that went with it.

i hope u get to eat your muffin today. O_o

(poetic creds)

cute story time..

this one's a lil' extra for all u kid lovin' bloggers..

it's hailing here right now.. thundering, lightning, raining... AND hailing.

interesting.

sO, j-boy #3 comes to me and says, "Mommy, i FEEL the lightning in my window."

sO naturally i wanna know what lightning FEELS like.. so i asked him.

his answer, "it FEELS like nothing."

heh heh.. eh heh.

i LOVE the age when the senses are all discombobulated..

(and i LOVE the word discombobulated)

my favorite example of this **discombobulation** EVER is from this convo..

same kid.. different moment.

someone leaves the bathroom.. j-boy #3 responds when he goes into the same bathroom..

"it smells HOT in here."

i STILL don't know what he meant by that, but i probably shouldn't WANT to know either.. O_o

i hope your tomorrow FEELS wonderfully yummy. =)
