Just Us Mothers of the Year

We'd tell you we're making it up, but our imaginations just aren't that good!

Not so eggs-cellent

Not too long ago, I came into my kitchen when I heard one of my boys crying about his food not being done. I wasn’t sure what all the fuss was about, but quickly found out when I stumbled upon this:

This is NOT a hard-boiled egg.

This is also NOT a hard-boiled egg.

Guess what? Not hard boiled.

Starting to sense a pattern here…

Thankfully both cartons weren’t full, but he missed the carton of hard-boiled eggs by one shelf. Apparently, the bright, colored carton threw him off. That’s just the type of thing us MOTYs do, right?

Size matters

Earlier this year, my 5-year-old had asked for a bowl of cereal as a late snack. It wasn’t too far from supper, so I told him that he could have ONE bowl of cereal.

Being a MOTY, I emphasized the one…don’t want to ruin his supper, you know?

Well, what I failed to do was emphasize size of serving – and this is what I walked in to find:

When specifying that a child can have only ONE bowl, one should also specify the size of that bowl!
