Happy Mother's Day--scariest book ever

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY all you wonderful mothers out there I hope you all have a wonderful day and your family is as good to you as mine have been.

It is currently 2:53pm and I would LOVE to share my highlights with you.

7:00am, Leila enters my room crying and shaking. The conversation is as follows:

Leila: Mommy I scared.
Mommy: What are you scared of baby? (pulling her up to my bed and praying to God that she will just go to sleep so I can sleep in on this lovely day of Mother's)
L: The scary duck will get me.
M: What scary duck?
L:the scary bad duck in the scary duck book. (yes her vocab is this good at barely 2)
M: It's okay Mommy will keep you safe, lets go to sleep.
L: (histerical) Mom the ducky book will get me. (literally shaking)
M: Okay lets go get the book.

We then get up and retrieve said scaru duck book and I try to put it up on the fridge.

L: NO!!! The duck will get me from up up high.
M: what do you want me to do with it?
L: frow it in the garbage. The big garbage outside.
M: Okay.

I do NOT throw perfectly good, adorable books away, so I go out front and put it in the car.

L: Thank you Mommy you saved me.

This is one reason why I absolutely love being a mother and having a 2 year old.

Here is the scary book you may all want to hide your copy, just in case. What isa funny is this is a super cute book. I am not sure why she thinks the duck is so scary.

My second lovely memory of today would be Hailey. After waking up and taking the book out I was pretty disheveled, AKA I needed a shower. I get Leila some breakfast and Hailey asks me to get her some. So I lean down give her a hug and say " Good morning sweet girl, did you sleep well?" Well my sweet girl leans away and says "Mom, your breath stinks and you need a shower, your hair looks terrible!" My reply "I love you to (your breath reaks too but you don't see me singing it)"

I LOVE being a Mother.

And my last memory of today was this morning when I finished getting ready, yes I showered. anyways I walk out and Heath says " hey beautiful" and Morgin say's " she's not beautiful Dad she's GEORGEOUS!!!"

I absolutely love my children and Heath for being so kind as to supply me with them and the means to be a stay at home mom, it is the hardest most frustrating and often disgusting but I wouldn't trade it for anything.

HAPPY MOM'S DAY
