Rule #119

Rule #119:  When Mommy is explaining how frustrated she gets when you don’t listen, it’s a bad time to start giggling and chanting “like talking to a brick wall” repeatedly with your brother.


Thanks, Wendy W.!

Rule #118

Rule #118:  Apparently the number of times you tell your child to “Be Careful” is proportional to how likely he is to need stitches.  On a weekend.  When Mommy is out of town.

Day 4

When I was out of town a few weekends ago, Gavin fell into the wooden part of our rocking chair.  Meanest Daddy did a great job handling the 6 stitches (with the other 2 kids in tow) at the urgent care clinic.  Stitches were removed last week, and Gavin is healing nicely.  I am almost recovered from being gone when my kid got hurt.  😦

Rule #117

Rule #117:  No screaming & whining when Mommy accidentally sings Tyrone’s lyrics instead of Uniqua’s lyrics. This shouldn’t be that big of a deal.

Rule #116

Rule #116:  That little space between the couch & the corner of the wall… It’s not a garbage can. Or a toy box. Or a hamper. Or book drop.  Or a place for the remote.

Rule #115

Rule #115:  Just because that rock missed your brother’s head does not make it okay to throw said rock at his head on purpose.


Thanks, Christie CC!

Rule #114

Rule #114:  We don’t put chicken in our underwear.

 

Thanks, Jean M.!  But I’ve been thinking about this rule…  Was it a rubber chicken?  Chicken McNuggets?  A bantam?  Jean also shared with me that when she made up this rule on the fly, her daughter asked, “Why?” and she had no idea what to say.  Jean – Have you come up with something yet?  🙂

Rule #113:  Meanest Mommy is guessing you can do better than “Tuna casserole peepit flushing toilet” as the punch line of your jokes.

Rule #110:  Applesauce is not finger food.  Neither is pudding, ice cream, yogurt, or oatmeal.


Fingerfood

Thanks, Lauren C.!
