Two days ago, I was talking to my mother on the phone. She comes off with, "You could have been a good person, if I hadn't messed up raising you."

Oh dear. But probably more her guilt than a mark against you.

Now, while this could seem to be a slam on her parental skills, it was most certainly a burn on me When I commented that I really wasn't that bad of a person, she recovered with: "Of course not, I'm not saying you are Ted Bundy, you just have the potential to be." How reassuring (note major amounts of sarcasm)

Nah you could NEVER be a Ted bundy. You are the Ted Bundy hunter!!

Then, yesterday, my loving daughter says to me, "Mom, I wish you were an elf, then you'd be pretty."

oh my lol sorry but damn kids.

*blinks* Score: kids 1, mom 0

*hugs* shows she has a strong apreciation for elves is all Maybe she likes pointy ears

Nicholas pats my hand and says it's okay, only smart moms are really pretty.

Oh dear...

*blink, blink* Score: kids 2, mom 0

*hugs more* guess he never heard no *dumb blond jokes* huh*

We are making plans today to go to an indoor play structure, and I get (from son to daughter) "Do you think mom should take this book?" then (from daughter to son) "I think that one is too big for her to read all the words in."

Oh dear ... they should have inserted a winky

*sighs*

*hugs again*

There are just times you wonder why you get out of bed

You get outa bed to be a book reading, good looking elf. Who hunts down the Ted Bundys of this world

Hugs tight




she had so many children she didn't know what to do

It was just a book bag but it changed my life.

*the love.... you take it with you* RIP Kory
