I am learning a few new "life lessons" these days and I thought I would share them:
- You need to be far more organized than I am if you are going to have 3 kids in a 1200sq ft. house.
- You need to be far more organized than I am if you are going to have 3 kids in one bedroom.
- You need to be far more organized than I am if you are going to have 3 kids.
(are you detecting a pattern with the above 3 life lessons?)
- It's pretty much a useless endeavor to take a 3 year old boy anywhere you need him to be quiet and/or well behaved unless you are really feeling like you want to get mad.
- Kids DO repeat things their parents say. Don't use the word "fat"to describe ANYTHING or ANYONE (even yourself) NOT EVEN ONCE unless you want your 4 year old daughter constantly questioning loudly whether or not someone is fat.
- Once you've been accused of kidnapping your own child, you tend to be a little more defensive. For example, when you are checking in at the gym with your three kids and they ask, "And who do you have with you today?" You answer, "My three KIDS. Yes, this is my son. He is black. Is that a problem?" (Hypothetically speaking, of course.)
-The Woolite P.O.D. is an absolute must for anyone with kids and ANY amount of carpeted/upholstered surface in their home. If it's carpeted, it WILL get peed, pooped, or barfed on.
- It is too your benefit to use only red and white Christmas lights. Hey, did you know that we are the first ones in our neighborhood to have our "Valentine's Day Lights" up?
