say what?

things i thought i'd never have to say...because i thought they were understood:

"eating hair is bad for you. if you continue, the doctor is going to make us shave your head. seriously"

"oh, i can so make that face too!"

"we do not put poop in our mouths. that is disgusting."
{{{sparing you the pic of this one}}}

"you may not chew on the computer, sofia."

"be nice to the books. books are our friends."

"licking the bottom of your shoe is not acceptable."

"one hat is sufficient for playing in the snow."

it's all part of wordful wednesday...come on and join. everybody is doing it!!

Unknown said…
i think i've heard you say all of those! more than once!
Ewwww, yeah...the things you think you'll never have to say, hehe. Or how about the things you have to say a million times and they still don't get it...that's what we deal with around here, hehe. Happy day to you :-)
Unknown said…
Hah! I did a post like this a couple of months ago. The things we have to say out loud once the kiddos come along range from the ridiculous to the sublime, don't they? One of my faves has to be "Don't sit on the dog's head!" followed by the very close second "Don't sit on your brother's head!". :)
Susie said…
Those are soooooo funny:-) I have said "Don't lick the wall":-)
Jenners said…

Kacey said…
Hilarious! What is it about kids and shoes? Disgusting! When Ryder was teething, I could not keep my Crocs out of his mouth. YUK! :o)
Rhea said…
I've had to say a few of those. Not the poop one though, thank goodness. lol
Frizzy said…
Ha! I'm so with you on a few of those. Kids can be really really gross aye?! Cute pictures by the way.
As moms we end up saying the darnedest things! A magical WW to you!
Cheryl Lage said…
Isn't it HYSTERICAL the things that escape our lips once parents?

I remember holding up a found poo ball and saying, "Whose poo is THIS?" Yuck.

Thanks so much for coming by my blog...I'll be back by yours!
Megan said…

Thanks for not showing the poop eating pic. I don't think my stomach could handle that right now. :0P
Ashley said…
Aww! Poor thing... she really had to shave her head? I've never heard of such a thing either! Cute pictures.

random acts...GNO

over at GNO, there's a few of us who decided to challenge ourselves last week to perform a random act of kindness.   i talked with my girls and hubs about what we could do... we reserve some funds each month out of our giving to put towards a current or urgent need that we find.  i think it's important to let the kids see how we give as family...and they should be part of that decision too . as we were talking, and eating chinese...come on, you know there would be eating...i open my fortune cookie.  and this is it!! i was out getting a few minutes of alone time and decided to pay hubs forward by getting jiffy lube to do the oil change.  while i was there, i remembered how hard it was being a single mom.  i remembered that the little things, like oil changes, suddenly became bigger things and honestly, more expensive things.  *light bulb!!!* thomas rang me up for my oil change and asked if they had any scheduled appointments that i could pay for.  he looked at me a little odd...

sadness

on the way home from DD {{bc apparently there was NO preschool today for jk...it's no prob, really...we just rushed around and scrambled and got in the car and then when we got there and there was no school...well, there were tears...thus DD}} , there came a moment of sincere sadness in my heart. jk: " mommy, i want to look like brookie" "why sweetie? you are the perfect jada" jk: "i don't like my brown skin. i want peach skin like brookie" i just sank. does that not make ur heart want to break? a 3 yo is struggling already with her skin being different. then, this happened: brooke: "jada, god made you and he loves you. he does it all right the very first time" then, i think my heart grew three sizes . jada threw a big smile up on her face and said, "ok. god loves me" now, if we all could just do that. god loves us...he doesn't make mistakes...he makes perfect works of art. sometimes there are scratches in the art.

tuesday tribute---for tuesday

go blog yourself has been on my reading list for quite sometime...and so i really came to love little tuesday whitt and her whole sweet fam and became involved in praying for them in tuesday's battle with that stinky neuroblastoma . tuesday's parents are totally amazing...they inspire me! although tuesday went to play with jesus not so long ago, there have been so many people that are changed because of the courage and strength and honesty of the whitt family. on the day of celebration of tuesday's life, a number of folks who couldn't make it out to the funeral, took their kids on a 'wagie ride', which was one of tuesday's fav things. we all posted up our pics...shared our experiences with each other...and hugged our kiddos a little tighter. my kiddos wagie ride is here . from that precious little tuesday and her honorary wagie ride, a blog spawned...of course...and it is dedicated to nothing more than, in their words, "to keep track of lives touc
