My friend Heather has some fantastic Truths of Motherhood that I love. They are
much more meaningful than this.
I may need 9 lives to get through my every day. For now,
here are my 9 truths:
1) There is a pink Minnie Mouse tricycle in the bathroom.
Actually- in the shower, in the bathroom. And, baby doll Rosie is sleeping in
the sink, with the hand towel covering her up.
2) I drink out of sippy cups...on a normal basis. Granted
it's because I am just looking for a quick sip of liquid to either swallow
vitamins with, or because it's the only thing sitting on the end table right
next to me in the living room, and I'm eating salty popcorn, and don't feel
like getting up.
3) I have a professionally-perfected vault over 3-foot high
gates, as to not touch it at all while clearing myself into the office and
trapping little people behind.
4) The catch-all tray for keys and wallets is filled with
broken crayons, glittery hair clips, pacifiers (even though Christian hasn't
used one in over a year), and long lost legos.
5) A big fabric box filled with diapers and wipes and
lotions is literally the centerpiece of our dining table.
6) At any one time, a person could scrounge up a hearty
snack (maybe even enough for lunch) from the floor of our car.
7) I have to literally sneak out of the house if I want to
avoid a full-blown melt-down of little creatures that "want to go
toooooooooo".
8) Tragedy has struck the Finch house when there aren't any
more apple squeezers in the fridge.
9) At 7:30pm, the clouds part, a rainbow is visible, and
angels sing sweet music.
