I love bein' a Mama for sooo many reasons! I'll list few:
~Kids make great props when I'm actually only trying to photograph myself.
~ They are super honest (except for when they totally lie to my face... we're working on that..)
~People are always like, "YOU'VE HAD 4 KIDS!!! YOU LOOK AMAZING!" If I didn't have four kids and were single then folks would just think I looked good 'cause I was trying to snag a man.
~When I get out of the shower I have an audience pointing out all my imperfections... (I mean, if I HAD any... which I don't, of course, so... what they do is point out my perfections.... so that's pretty cool.)
~They keep me out of trouble.
~ I get to scrape boogers off the walls.
~i know what TRUE EXHAUSTION is.
~Sometimes they say, "you look weird"
~ chubby armed hugs and slobbery kisses
~ Sometimes they make me breakfast in bed. The eggs are always extra crunchy because of the shells... MMMMMMM. I always eat every bite so I can say , "Look! I ate every bite! Delish!"
~I get to hang upside-down on the monkey bars and no one calls the police. If I were just some lady all alone at the park upside-down, I think someone might call the pigs.
I'm sure I could think of more mushy gooshy stuff. There's a lot. I could really inspire tears if I so chose... But if you wanted THAT you could just go to Hallmark and read all the lame cards displayed today.
I love my kids. Wouldn't go back and re-do.
I'm on my way to Hallmark now....
