FamilyBuzz noticed that the blahs are going around, and his post reminded me of something from this morning that made me so very, very happy to be a mom, and especially happy to be me.
I was sleeping on my tummy, which I never do unless I am completely crashed and don’t feel uncomfortable enough to roll back. I felt a tickling on my forehead, and my cheek. I opened one eye and blinked and saw that Dylan had crawled over me and was resting his head on the pillow next to me. He was stroking my hair and brushing his fingers over my face, watching me sleep.
I smiled at him and said, “I love you.” He looked back at me, never taking his eyes off mine, and replied solemnly, “Good.”
I write. A lot.
I also design stuff and collect funny things kids say. Oh, and please buy my book. It's very funny.
I also review books and keep track of them in The Mommy Blog Amazon Book Store.

My son was in the same room as me when I was getting dressed one day. I scratched the top of my left breast a little and he said, “Mommy, you are touching your —-!”
I said to him, “I just have an itch,” to which he responded, “That’s *your* excuse!”

Jax: Mommy, here’s a little piece of toilet paper to wipe the tip.
Mommy: The tip of what?
Jax: Your penis.

After being told to go outside and pick up the dog poop, he goes outside, whines and complains. He comes back in and says, “Mom, I think the dog over-pooped.”

When I woke up one morning with a sore throat, raspy voice, and fever, my three-year-old, Emilie, asked me what was wrong. I said, “Mama has a cold…” and she felt my cheek for a minute before saying, “No. You has a hot!”

Do you know how I memorized 2 x 11? I have this fake pencil in my brain, and it writes down the multiplication!!

Whenever I’m down, my kidlets seem to do something cute or sweet like that too. Sounds like another reminder for you that you have family (and blog friends) who love ya, Brits be damned.

I second Marcia… hey!!!! apart from the Brits be damned part.
harumph.
Your writing rules, as do you and your lovely kids.
Ignore pretencious losers. And stay YOU.
(makes me laugh btw how one reviewer on that site actually says that ‘if you want to read about motorcycles etc then this isnt the place for you’ and saying that you are specifically interesting to a certain audience. For petes sake you are a BLOGGER writing about YOUR LIFE. Do they think you are meant to make shit up or something? WTF? Oh excuse me while i entertain the masses. its called a WEBLOG REVIEW… not a ‘multi national newspaper/womens weekly/teen/baby/motorcross/porn/knitting weekly/cookery for beginners/how to make your man smile in bed/nasdaq report fucking magazine ??????????
IS IT?
NO.
HEY NEWSFLASH>
ITS A BLOG !!!!!!!

My kids would just say “Well, DUH! I’m so nice how could you not love me?”
I wonder where they get that from? Hmmmmm
