I learned you could paint

On Being a Mom

My daughters very first words were thank you She was always handing me crap when she was young Her Rattle Her stuffed pig Her Teddy and being clueless why she was handing them to me I would just say Thank you So erm those were her first words Her second was Daddy Evidently he was more fun to play with than me. My cousin's first boy named Nevin, if you asked him what his name was would proudly exclaim I am NO NEVIN NO So I suppose it could be worse. My girl also use to say everything was some SOME pointing at candy SOME reaching for your glass As in I WANT SOME! Because I use to always ask her when she pointed at things Do you want SOME? Yeah I wasnt very good at teaching her to talk She made up for it later. the Tween years she started talking a lot and never stopped But thats ok too I love being a mom even though I never wanted kids I love knowing all the answers shhh internet dont tell her I dont have them She thinks I do which is good enough But now....
