Laugh It Up Tuesday!

Happy Mother’s Day!

Being a Mom is a tough job and sometimes you need to laugh, just to get through the day J



 
Dear Lord, it's such a hectic day
With little time to stop and pray
For life's been anything but calm
Since You called on me to be a mom
Running errands, matching socks
Building dreams with building blocks
Cooking, cleaning, and finding shoes
And other stuff that children lose
Fitting lids on bottled bugs
Wiping tears and giving hugs
A stack of last weeks mail to read
So where's the quiet time I need?
Yet when I steal a minute, Lord
Just at the sink or ironing board
To ask the blessings of Your grace
I see then, in my small one's face
That you have blessed me
All the while
And I stop to kiss
That precious smile

Child Sent to Bed
A small boy is sent to bed by his mother...
[Five minutes later]
"Mom..."
"What?"
"I'm thirsty. Can you bring me a glass of water?"
"No. You had your chance. Lights out."
[Five minutes later]
"Mom..."
"WHAT?"
"I'm THIRSTY...Can I have a glass of water??"
"I told you NO! If you ask again I'll have to spank you!!"
[Five minutes later]
"Mommm..."
"WHAT??!!"
"When you come in to spank me, can you bring me a glass of water?"




Things Mom Would Never Say
·         "How on earth can you see the TV sitting so far back?"
·         "Yeah, I used to skip school a lot, too"
·         "Just leave all the lights on ... it makes the house look more cheery"
·         "Let me smell that shirt -- Yeah, it's good for another week"
·         "Go ahead and keep that stray dog, honey. I'll be glad to feed and walk him every day"
·         "Well, if Rahul's mamma says it's OK, that's good enough for me."
·         "The curfew is just a general time to shoot for. It's not like I'm running a prison around here."

  2. I guess you know I don't have to say anything about how my mom felt about this post..LOL She LOVED it and so did I...Dad said he is waiting for Father's Day, though he got the big time giggles out of the cartoon with the mom telling the kid someday she was going to climb up in the kids lap and soil herself! LMBO We all was doing the double crack up at that! ; p

    Happy Early Mother's Day to you as well~

    Big Hugs~<3
