most familiar: hugging both children at once, with one wrapped over each shoulder, sweetly enjoying their warmth and love until the back of my head gets knocked as they start swiping at each other behind me.
gluttonous: checking out 63 books from the library. And then spotting another interesting cover on the way out of the building, going back, and checking it out too.
most old couple-ish: when both kids were finally sleeping, having The Man clap his hands together and say, "Okay! Let's get some shit done!" Housework is the new romance.
yummiest: The Man made cabbage rolls for lunch.
most irritating: having the toddler catapult an entire cabbage roll at my head during lunch.
freakiest: buying black leggings of the type I haven't worn since I was ten and bicycle shorts were all the rage. I've already worn them.
weirdest: having the boy repeatedly ask me to give him snake bites on first one forearm and then the other. Repeatedly. At first I say no, but after being asked for a solid 10 minutes, I really, really feel like he deserves a couple.
slackerish: having a 20 minute nap (every night) while I help Smootch fall asleep.
slackerish part II: blogging rather than tackling the dishes.
worrisome: bringing in an armload of wood for the stove, dropping it into the wood bin, and then watching as dozens of spiders and ants are flung into the floor from the impact.
most horrifying: bra shopping with the preschooler ("I don't know, mom, they just don't look right from down here.")
most liberating: buying a bra for the first time in 6 years that doesn't have easy access flaps.
funniest: After sending the kids off to clean up a mess they made, Smootch whispers to Birdie, with the camaraderie of a fellow inmate, "I know. She's pretty mean, eh?"
You don't know that half of it kids. Wait until you actually comprehend what a blog is, my sweet darlings, and the public horrors you will face. Remember, it's all because I love you so much!
Mwaahahahaha!!!!!!
