Seriously???

I've been told several times I should write a book about my crazy life experiences (certain things ONLY happen to me), my encounters with men (the good, bad and clinically insane), and my phenomenal nine year career as a mom. Honestly writing a book is an understatement! I could write an Encyclopedia! So to all you moms out there who think you have it tough, here's a little humor for your day.

Last night I was spending some quality minutes with my daughter looking up songs to add to her iPod. I can hear three of my other children laughing and carrying on like they had discovered gold. For a brief moment I thought "how cute! they're all getting along!"....then the mom in me kicked in, as did reality, and I thought "are you kidding me, what are they into now???". Low and behold they had discovered how GREAT Lego's looked thrown ALL OVER a bedroom. That's nothing you say right? Well I think the same thing too! However, when asked to clean up the colorful disaster I'm met with three faces who immediately say "I didn't do it. I can't clean it up because I too tired." Really??? My six year old son then throws himself onto the floor literally withering through the mess, in tears, whining "I can't! I'm too tired, and my throat hurts". Come on!!!! Aside from yelling, and half laughing, how do you respond with anything but "Seriously???"
