"If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will—to your surprise—miss them profoundly." - Pres. Thomas Monson

The Latest Installment...

Summer 2008
The neighborhood kids were out playing in the sprinklers and us moms were out chatting. Derek ran in to change from his wet swimsuit back into his clothes. A few minutes later he came to the front door stark naked. I screamed and ran to make him go back inside.
Mommy: Derek why aren't your clothes on?
Derek: I couldn't find any socks.
Mommy: Buddy, socks should have been the least of your worries.

Derek: Mommy, don't take drugs when you are pregnant, okay.
Mommy: Um, okay. Where did you hear that?
Derek: My teacher told me that a little Kindergarten kid's mommy took drugs when she was pregnant. And now he just screams all the time.

Derek: Do you think McKenna knows what death is?
Mommy: Nope, I don't think so.
Taylor: Death is when you go to Heaven.
Mommy: Well, you go to Heaven only if you are good.
Derek: Yeah, you go to Hell if you are bad.
Taylor: No, you go to Time Out if you are bad.
