Purely Anecdotal

May 30, 2007 by Minnesota Mom Filed Under: Anecdotal, Minnesota Me 5 Comments

Son Number 1 to Son Number Two: “Guys like you should not be using tasers.”

This is what I overhear as I am passing by the kitchen computer.

Just keep moving, Mom. There’s a nice relaxing game of “Okay, you be the mommy kitty and I’ll be the baby” going on in the next room.

* * * * *

My daughter spilled half a box of cheerios (literally) on the kitchen floor last night, and no one could take two steps without their mercilessly being crunch crunched underfoot. While stalking about with a dust pan and doing her best to take care of the mess, Cate muttered, “No one else will remember this night, but I…I will always remember.”

I have no idea where she gets her flair for the dramatic.

Do you?

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. ♥
