Rule #53 (not really a rule; just something crazy I found myself saying today):
No, there are no pits in the brownies.
OMG, my kid thinks that brownies are a type of fruit or vegetable! Sigh.

“Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy!”

Rule #50: All Mommy wants for her birthday is…
-
Long afternoon naps for the children
-
All the loud toys to run out of batteries
-
Lunch with my friends somewhere other than the McDonald’s Playplace
-
No whining
Is that too much to ask?

Rule #32: Trying to make you put your shoes & coat on when we leave the playdate does not need to resemble a WWF Smackdown. (And what’s the point anyway? You know Mommy always wins.)

Rule #29: Just because you don’t feel like taking a nap doesn’t mean that your little brother doesn’t need one. Quiet down, kid!
