IF.....

If you finish giving your daughter a speech about staying with Daddy at the ballet and behaving properly and her response is, "Mommy you forgot to say to sit like a lady", you know you have given this speech before.

If you attend a princess birthday party with your 3 year old who is dressed like Jasmine and you are just as excited as she is, you know you are still a child at heart.

If you try to explain to your children that tomorrow is Father's Day and we are going to try really hard to make the day special for Daddy and your children's response is, "Why isn't there a Kid's Day", you know that selfishness still reigns supreme.

If your 3 year old daughter stands up in the child seat of the grocery cart and spreads her arms open wide while saying, "Look at me Mommy, I not sitting down." you know that every mother watching is remembering when the same thing happened to her.

If you tell your kids that you are going to clean Daddy's closet for Father's day, then you know the kids will run to Daddy saying Don't go in your closet Daddy, It's a surprise!!

If a huge crack of thunder and lightening strike at the same time and you go running for your 3 year old as quickly as she comes running to you, you know that God created a mother's desire to protect and a child's desire for comfort from her Mother.

If you begin the day at Walmart not finding shoes and you end the day at T.J. Maxx not finding a dress you know it was a lousy shopping day.

If you switch the laundry one more time at 10:30 at night and you still have 2 loads to fold on the couch you might think you skipped a laundry day but then you will realize that this is just your reality life with 4 kids.

Blessed to me Momofkrit and WoJ,
