I have always liked Dr. Seuss and although not one of his best, this is a good book to read to a little one that likes to make silly sounds. BTW, what the hell is a wocket anyway?
Never thought I'd say that...
So just a few minutes ago, my mom comes home from work (she's been living with us for the past few months until she gets a place of her own, which should be next month) and says that she wants to take the little gremlin for a walk. I'm like sure, its nice outside and its been in the 50's for the past couple of days, so why not. We both get Adriana situated in her stroller and as they are leaving I say "Be back by sundown." WHAT! I actually said that to my mother!? That's awesome. Never in a million years did I ever think I would tell my mother to "be back by sundown." I had a little giggle to myself about that one and thought maybe you would too. Have a good Wednesday.

Hehe! That is funny...
SunDown, if my mother offered to take my kids I would tell her to be back before they are 17. Haha.
Hee hee! That's great.... I'll be she rolled her eyes! After my father died, my mother's high school friends tried to fix her up on dates. She only went on a couple, but I had fun grilling the guys, making them uncomfortable, and then telling her to be home by 10PM! HA!
The world is upside down man, upside freakin down!
How funny! Too bad we can't say stuff like that to our kids anymore. My Mom must've said that thousands of times when I was little.
That's a good one. Made me laugh.
Since it's the weekend, I would have given her until sundown on Sunday. Lol.
Too Funny!
Happy Bloghopping!

Cool! Grandma's got a curfew.... too funny!
Blog hopping - etcetera
It all comes full circle eventually!
Yep, a sign of more such moments to come I am sure. LOL!
My mom is our nanny (I'm disabled so even though I stay at home I need help with an active 3 yr old boy) so her cell phone is on my family share plan. I thoroughly enjoyed the lectures I got to give after the 4th, 5th, 6th...times she ran way over on minutes and cost an extra $200 each time. It brought me back to getting yelled at for being on the phone in high school!
Uh oh. I'll give you till next week before you say something like "don't forget your sweater or you'll catch your death!"
haha! I'm amazed at the things I say to my mother that she used to say to me, now that I am a parent. Lovely site,you have here! It's my first time popping by.
