Tooth

On Sunday he noticed his tooth was loose. On Monday the tooth fell out. "I was eating a nut and the tooth was like, PLOOMP, and it fell out onto the floor. It didn't hurt or anything, it was just gone."
On early, early, early Tuesday morning, he noticed that the Tooth Fairy had come. "And she brought me CHIPS AHOY and MINI OREOS! MOM OPEN YOUR EYES!"

Happy Day!

I heard a person walk by and say, "Wasn't there a Starbucks over there in that corner? And now there is just a kid dancing...Economic problems are everywhere."




I met them all as they were riding down the escalator. The kids were overloaded with their huge backpacks and they started to toddle towards me. "Stay there!" I shouted. "Don't move! Stay put!"
I was crying while I was shouting at them. I'm sure I appeared to be the only mother picking up her children that was screaming at them to stay where they were. I just didn't want them to fall down the escalator. There are rules about those things.

You better wrap that in plastic!

I am long-distance bossing.

Hmm.

Hmm. CSI: Athens or just a typical October day living with M?



Here's another one of M. Guess what that wet spot is on our concrete? Thank goodness this sort of thing didn't have to be described in the real estate disclosures paperwork.


That kid cracks me up. And irritates me. At the same time.
