To be a kid again...

On Monday my mom had surgery so Erik was here all alone with the kids... sounds like he had it pretty easy! She just got tired and fell asleep standing up... who does that? What would you give to be a kid again at times? Those times when you can drop down and sleep anywhere you want and someone will carry you to your bed... when all you have to do is say "food" and someone is opening the package for you to pig out... you could throw your food on the floor and step on it like Caydence does... or cry when you don't get your way and all of a sudden, "sure, go right ahead" and most importantly... when you want something so bad at the store and someone buys it for you! Oh my word... sometimes, I wish I was still in those days. Even just to be a kid where all I have to do is play, eat, and sleep. No work involved! Ahhh... someone could even brush my teeth for me and wipe my mouth and brush my hair... man I miss those days, actually I can't even remember them, but I do miss them! I wouldn't even have to go poop or pee on the potty... I could just crap myself and someone would wipe my butt!! :) Ewww... gross I know, but the very thought... I would at least be getting pampered, right? We were playing outside today and I was watching Dylan & Caydence swing... they didn't have a care in the world... they were laid back, enjoying the breeze and both screaming, "WEEEEEEE." (don't get me wrong, I loved seeing them happy) Of course we walk down the road and that's our thinking time, or if you are a male... you take a poop for 5 minutes and sit and think for another 35 minutes... but we can't walk down the road and not have a care in the world... it's what bills are due this week or how am I going to get groceries on the table, or what's for dinner, or I wish my husband would not have gone to work mad at me, etc.... it just stinks being an adult sometimes... I hate financial responsibility! When it comes to pets... love them, but if I was a kid, I wouldn't have to walk around outside scooping up poop until I am gagging so hard that my lunch is right at my tonsils or scoop cat liter (which I don't do)... if I was a kid, I could just rub on them and love them and do all the fun things... no poop duty involved!!! When my kids get older...that's the first chore I am passing off... he's the scooper...ENJOY! Just kidding.. well kind of! :)

Yet all those hardships... and I am so glad to be an adult and even more importantly a MOMMY!!! Because if I were a kid... there wouldn't be a Dylan or Caydence and my life just would not be the same without them!

Enjoy your day!
