my kids fight.
nonstop bickering.
i thought my head would spin off freakshow style if i had to hear them argue one more time...
thank God for 7:30.
i do love to be with them - but i like it best when they're sweet to one another.
i swore i wouldn't blog about this...
la even accused me of doing it so that i would have something interesting to blog about - i wish that was the case. i am just really, really a circus act.
today, in a moment of 'momma-protector-instinct-induced' hysteria, i licked a battery that had been rolled all over my precious baby's face to see if the liquid oozing out of it was, in fact, battery acid. it was. my tongue still burns. the kid's face seems to be unscathed. my tongue is very, very acid burned. don't ever lick a battery. i don't care what reason you may think you have - there must be a better way...
my husband works at 2pm on tuesdays - i don't get off work until 2pm on tuesdays. there's always this weird overlap of childcare for my daughter (who stays with daddy on tues./thurs.)
so my boss suggested that my husband start bringing A. up to my work on tues after lunch and i can watch her along with the other preschoolers.
it's been working out great, except for one rather superficial aspect on my part.
my boss looked out over the playground today and pointed to a child and said, "who's that?"
it was my daughter. she was brought to me today with fraggle rock hair, a snot-encrusted face, a raggedy t-shirt, and her BROTHER'S shorts on.
it was very funny. very my hunny.
i love my husband - he's really good at so many things - but even he will attest to his weakness where dressing the kids is concerned. he is absolutely horrible at it, to the point of hilarious.

ha ha ha heee ha hee heee heee ha ha *snort* ha ha ha ha nee hee hee hee ha he heee haaa... I'll be sure to put "don't ever lick a battery" in my lists of do's & don'ts!! I've wiped boogies with my bare hands out of sheer necessity, but I must admit, I've never licked a battery. They're kinda like drugs. They're just not good for you and even trying them once can harm you. guffaww ha ha haa heee heee hee haa haaa haaa ... that's just too stinkin' funny! That's why I love you, A. You put my crazy-controlled life back into perspective.
word of advice: shop Garanimals! The man folk can never go wrong with this. Even Jason looks like he knows what he's doing. ;)
So in my view, if you had licked the battery for something interesting to blog about, it would have been well worth it. Well worth it to your readers, perhaps not well worth it to your tongue. That's just good reading. I like it.
hmmm... that was just a really very interesting story. the things we will do for the protection of our kids. =) made me chuckle.
what?? no more updates??? come on, really...you can't keep me in such suspense! what else have you done lately in your "momma-protector" induced hysteria??? I know you have had to do something...you have 2 children! ;)
