LIAR LIAR, PANTS ON FIRE!!


my kids love taking baths. especially lincoln. he would probably stay in the bath all day if i let him! so, i think it is so gross, even though all kids do it, that the childrens suck on the wash rags, drink the bath water, etc. well, this morning i caught lincoln sucking water from the bath faucet...... i told him to stop or ear-wigs would come out and crawl in his mouth if he continued doing that! now, to some this may seem not so gross, but i have a phobia of bugs coming out of faucets. when i was little, i remember holding a cup up under the bath faucet while the water was running, and an ear-wig fell out into my cup. it freaked me out then, and still gives me the 'heebie-jeebies'!! thus, i am justified in my actions!

LIAR LIAR, PANTS ON FIRE!!

Who likes grocery shopping? You do? It all depends for me. If I am all by myself, I really don’t mind it. When I have the kids with me, well that’s another story. They like to pick things up. They like to climb on the cart. They like to climb on the shelves. They like to run away, or play in the displays. No,no way; I don’t think this is fun! What do I do? Well, in a very stern and serious voice I tell them that the store police will see them and come take them away. It works good for both sides. No, the police won’t really come, but it settles them down, and it keeps them safe from falling off the cart, or tripping, or even being strangled in the clothing displays!

HALOWEEN FUN!
