Post Blogger-Snafu Update: It was brought to my attention—kindly, gently, by a very sweet friend—that I have mistitled this blog post. The name of the series hosted at Like Mother, Like Daughter is {pretty, happy, funny, real}, not {pretty, funny, happy, real} as I have here.
Which is Pretty Funny, if you think about it.
I’m a writer and I can’t read.
Will try very hard to get it right next time.
I am loving this linky-link series known as {pretty funny happy real}.
Because, like, whose life isn’t?
On an hourly basis?
It’s a wonderful life.
These are the flowers that I got for Mother’s Day.
(Actually, I bought them myself at the grocery store and gave them to my husband when I got home. “Now tell me Happy Mother’s Day,” I whispered, and he did.)
(That makes this more of a {real} photo, doesn’t it.)
(Sorry. I already have one picked out for that category.)
I can’t win.
{happy}
My two favorite men in the whole wide world.
Need I say more? I could, but I won’t.
This is how I got my kids to sit still for the Garden of the Good Shepherd reading one day.
(Kinda makes you squirmy, doesn’t it.)
And this is my almost-12-year-old, who likes to be included in all my photos.
(Go, Vikings.)
And this is my almost-two-year-old, who doesn’t care at ALL if he’s included in Momma’s photo and doesn’t WANT Momma to be taking photos and who refuses to LISTEN to the Bible story and who wants ba-ba’s NOW! He means it! Okay?!

Now, the 2nd time for this post and I'll be 2nd! (instead of first like last time!)
I'll have to remember to use playdough when we do our first Garden of the Good Shepherd dinner this weekend!!!

Funny pics! Mother's Day was the same here except I bought a pizza cutter and vegi peeler. My husband is such a romantic. 🙂
Michelle says
It IS pretty funny. Have a great weekend, Margaret!

I know! And the crazy thing is, I looked at a bunch of blogs when I was writing the thing.
Blogs that had the Pretty, Happy, Funny, Real thing going.
And still, I didn't catch it.
Where is my HEAD, Michelle??? I tell you, I fear for my children.
Michelle says
Obviously, you haven't had enough coffee.

Margaret your pictures are hilarious! And you are brave to allow your children to play with play do on the floor! At least it can be swept up instead of stuck to carpet.
