some random facts I've learned about myself recently


  • I want a "note to self" recorder because there are so many times I want to remember something to blog about that I know I'll forget by the time I get the chance to sit down at the computer.

  • I love going to Subway because there are so many opportunities to say "please" and "thank you" as they make your sandwhich.

  • I usually enjoy seeing parents of friends from HS and listening to them tell me about their child's life since I knew them. I like to hear the story from a parent's point of view.

  • I find that I am always the unborn baby's advocate above the mom's.

  • I believe I am a very different mom to Graysen then I was to Hunter at this stage.

  • I think it's udderly rediculous that MS students are allowed in the hallways a full 35 minutes before the first bell rings. There is NO reason they need that much time to linger and socialize before going to class.

  • I think it is MUCH harder to be a parent the older the child gets - I'd take sleepless nights and crying over a disobidient child ANY DAY!

  • It is a pet peeve of mine for people to eat Dove Chocolates and not read the message in the wrapper...seriously...I get mad about it.

  • I get baby fever all the time. All I have to do is see a pregnant person, see an ultrasound picture, or hear a baby name I like. It's bad.

  • I am determined to teach my children how to respect their teacher's classrooms when they go to school. (Pushing in their chair when they get up, helping to pick up paper off the floor, saying please and thank you, not talking out of turn, etc.)

  • I think it should be a crime for anything to be scheduled on a Saturday before noon.
  • I would rather have a few really good friends then lots of people who I THINK are friends.

I am a different mom to Sarah, too. I think it's because kids are different, AND because I've learned what really matters and what doesn't. :o)

Oh...and I think you need therapy for the Dove chocolate wrappers thing...lol!
