    What a hoot! Isn’t that the truth though?

    Here’s hoping today’s a nap and coffee day for you, Margaret!

    That is just too funny! I wonder what my kiddos would put on a poster about me – on second thought, maybe I don’t want to see it.

    I would be scared of what my kids might put on a poster. Its bad enough listening to them repeat my own words to each other!

    That is SO great!!! Even greater that you are sharing it!!

    The other day, after I was up painting until 4am, my 5 year old was telling daddy at supper “Mommy did not even get mad at us once today!” Which actually was cute, but then I thought, do I usually get mad? Every day?

    Children are so humbling and honest. Aren’t they wonderful?

    That’s probably me without my chocolate, but my kids are probably too afraid to draw something like that. 😉

    All I know is that whenever I have my morning coffee, I toast you, my dear friend. Give up (gasp) coffee??

    Sainthood, my friend, that is where you are bound.

    ps. my kids would draw the same thing about me… everyday…. and I didn’t give up coffee. (sigh)

    Tattle tales they are!

    Doug says that picture is a masterpiece and sums up every stay-at-home mom in America.

    Humph!

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♥
