Reading all of the posts are so funny, I have just 2 funny little stories to tell about my son (soon to be 18).
When he was about 2,he had learned to go potty like daddy and was very proud of this accomplishment, I was cooking dinner and was racing around the kitchen trying to finish up and I had to pee like a racehorse, but could'nt go b/c of dinner on the stove, he walks into the kitchen and asks me"momma, can I help? and just out of the sheer need to pee really bad, I said" baby, momma needs to potty , but can't go , would you go for me? and went right back to finishing up dinner. Next thing I know here he comes running down the hall yelling "momma, do you feel better, I pee pee for you! At that point I sat down in the floor and told him "yes, I feel better, thank you. so innocent.
My husband and I always told our son that if he told a story that it would show up on his forehead, and we would know that he did. fast forward to 1st grade, Teacher calls me and tells me that he kicked a boy, ( he was learning tae kwon do) so that afternoon I always met him at the bus stop, and would ask him how was his day at school,
That afternoon, I'm waiting at the bus stop, he gets off with his hand covering his forehead, I try not to bust into laughter, and walk over to him hug him and ask him how was his day. He still his hand covering his forehead, and says to me, I had a good day momma and walks on to our house. I fell out laughing right there in the yard.
TIME GOES BY SO INCREDIBLY FAST WITH CHILDREN, TREASURE EACH AND EVERY DAY, AS IF IT WAS YOUR LAST, MAKE MEMORIES, MAKE TIME, SHARE WHAT YOU KNOW. SO THAT WHEN THEY HAVE THEIR OWN, THEY WILL REMEMBER, AND YOU WILL HAVE STARTED A BEAUTIFUL AWESOME CYCLE.
THEY WILL REMEMBER YOU FOR THAT SPECIAL GIFT
