As a mom I
find myself repeating a lot the same phrases.
Things that I never thought I'd hear myself saying are now a part of my
daily dialogue. They may sound absurd to other people, but to moms they make
perfect since. Here are 7 phrases I can't believe I say since becoming a
mom:
1) What is this life!!!!
I find myself
yelling this in a Woody Allen type voice, usually after some small catastrophe
like baby powder falling everywhere.
2) Where is my.....?
Insert keys,
wallet, and bra. I put it down an instantly forget where it's at, and when it
comes to finding it no place is off limits, including the fridge...
3) Walk it off
They will
bruise, scrap, and sometimes break. Anytime they are less than vertical your
heart leaps into your throat. I have to catch myself from going hysterical any
time she falls, so as long as she's okay.....walk it off.
4) Please don't eat the crayons
They won't
eat veggies, but they're curious about what those crayons taste like?
5) Sit down please!
All day long
I'm like "sit down" "sit down" I'm like the James Brown of
motherhood. Appropriately this statement is usually followed by #3 on the list
(See: Walk it off)
6) What is that smell?
You love
them, they're cute, but my goodness those poopy pampers are smelly!! Want to
end a hostage situation swiftly? Toss in a poopy pamper. World. Peace.
7) I think I'm going crazy...
Finally, you
may find yourself uttering this last one multiples times a day. Like recently
when I poured water in my hand thinking it was lotion. You're not crazy, you're
a mom.
Which can make you a little
crazy, but that's totally normal.
haha... I love these! Lately I've had to say "get your hand out of your britches" more than I'd like! sigh, toddlers!
