The Week in Review....

It looks like we have recovered from the flu. Josh, Googie and Jordan had it. Joshie was coughing for a couple days. I was not sick at all thanks to my strict regime of morning vitamins:




Lessons learned this week:

When the Dr. tells you to put your baby on the B.R.A.T. diet, make sure your oldest son knows what that acronym stands for.

Several hours later he will say :

Mommy what does brat mean?
Forgetting what the Dr. recommended you will say : A brat is a kid who really misbehaves and gets on your nerves, but it's not something you should call anybody.
Your son will become offended, thinking the Dr. insulted his baby brother by wanting him on the BRAT diet.

Leave your husband in charge of the kids for a total of 4 hours in 1 week:

He will be anxious to take you out on friday.

Go to see your friend/hairstylist/lifecoach:

She will tell you things about her family that make you throw up in your own mouth a little. You will also leave feeling better about yourself because:

A: your grey hair is covered, and
B: her crazy family stories actually out do yours (but not by very much)

When you take one of your middle sons outside to play, don't let him talk to your friends. He may go up to them , and for a reason no one knows, say:

Can I have some of your pretzels, my mommy hasn't fed me in 5 days.



Until Monday.
