It’s a happy day…

To my husband…

It feels like yesterday that we were two crazy kids, barely eighteen and and hopelessly in love. Where have the last 15 years gone?

But, I look at what we have learned, what we have become and what we have created — together– and I can’t believe it has only been that long. I can barely remember what my life was like without you in it. Thank you for allowing me to publicly ridicule you, for putting up with my craziness and for supporting me every step of the way. I would not be who I am without you. You are the best friend and best husband a girl could ask for. Happy Birthday, my love.

And, to my mom…

You have always and will always be my biggest cheerleader. Your love and support knows no limits and you have taught me what a mother should be. I love you.

And, to all of you moms…

Get some sleep and don’t you dare wash any clothes or change any diaper blowouts. Happy Mother’s day!!

Unfortunately, I’ve already cleaned 1 very stinky diaper and scrubbed 1 turd from the floor. Happy Mother’s Day to me! I hope yours is better. And Happy Birthday to your husband.

Happy Mother’s Day and Birthday to the Scary Couple!!
My Hubby scored big-time points this morning when he took TWO kids to the porta-potties for major emergencies. I was more than happy to stay behind with the diapered one!

Happy Mother’s Day! As for not changing diaper blowouts, you know that’s one of the special presents my son made me today : ) So I guess I was obligated to open it in more ways than one.

(= Fun read. Moms are unsung heros. I think their influence and ability to shape lives make them potentially amazing and frightening depending on how they treat their children. My mom did alright–I hope I do at least that. (=

Happy Mom’s Day to you, too! I did make dinner and bake some yummy-licious banana muffins, however I am happy to report I’ve not done one load of laundry all day.

Unfortunately, that just means the pile for tomorrow is bigger.

Sigh.
