"People are often unreasonable, irrational and self centered; forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies; succeed anyway. If you are honest and sincere, people may deceive you; be honest and sincere. What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight; create anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous; be happy anyway. The good you do today, will often be forgotten; do good anyway. Give the best you have and it may never be enough; give your best anyway. In the final analysis, it is between you and God; it was never between you and them anyway." - Mother Theresa

They Do The Darndest Things!

So I went out yesterday and left my two little kiddies with my Mom. Oh how I love my Mom! If I could ever one day live up to her level, that would be a great accomplishment for me! She's set the bar really high and I'll forever keep it as a life long goal of my own. GO MOM! lol

I came home last night and my Mom was telling me that Tamara ran up to her saying, "Mickey, Mickey!" lol My Mom laughed and replied, "Mickey is sleeping Tamara." (aww shucks!) So then what does Tamara do and say might you ask? She walks to the big screen and puts her ear against the tv and whispers, "Mickey, wake up." haha When my Mom rein-acted it to me, I laughed so hard I woke up Hene. And it wasn't even cause of what Tamara had done, it was more cause of the way my Mom had acted it out. She's too funny!

What I hate the most is when Tamara makes a big mess with whatever is around and when I yell, "TAMARA!" she runs up to me and rubs my arm saying, "Sorry Mom." She knows very well what she is doing and when she does make big messes OH SHE KNOWS that doing it is wrong. It just gets me every time with the rubbing of the arm and the "Sorry Mom" response. I get so mad for a second after seeing what she does and that little "Sorry Mom" gets her off the hook EVERY TIME cause I can't hold in my laugh.  

I know there will be late night cleanings, constant thoughts of whats next on the agenda, when is their next appointment, did I pick up their prescriptions?, what did they eat?, trying hard to prepare for the next day to make it as easy as possible when I know it'll just be another late nighter.. all the "little" things us Moms do. They may come with laughs, cries, and a whole lot of frustrations but for me there is one thing that makes all this "extra" work well worth it....

   

The sight of my kids sticking together!
