Roses are red
Violets are blue
Me and you and A dog named Blue

To understand your parents' love, you must raise children yourself -- Chinese proverb

Children reinvent your world for you. -- Susan Sarandon

There was a time when I waited impatiently for her to say "Ma-ma"
She said her first word on Mother's Day
That word was "Da-da"

The Three Ring Circus went bowling last weekend. Punkin got a higher score than I did in the second game.

--- Preschool Perspective ---

Mom! All my friends and I put this puzzle together today. That's called "TEAM WORK" Mom!

Daddy is "Mr. Handsome Guy." Mommy is "Mommy."

After a "successful sit" on the tiolet she stood up on the little stool she uses when sitting on the 'big' potty, put her hands in the air straight up over her head and excitedly exclaimed "I LEARNED!"

Mom. Can we go to the blue playground?

Punkin: Mom, what's that? It looks pwitty ducky.
Me: You mean "pretty dorky?"
Punkin: Yeah, that looks pretty dorky.

Mom! I saw an airplane! Look! See it?!
now imagine hearing this every 90 seconds for 45 minutes

Punkin: What's a liberry?
Me: It's a place with lots and lots of books.
Punkin: Why does it have lots of books?
Me: The books are there for people to read. You can take the books home with you for a little while and then bring them back and get more books.
Punkin: Why do you have to bring them back, Mom?
Me: So other people can read them.
Punkin: Mom. Sometimes, when we have time, will you, can we, can we go to the liberry?

in her sternest "mom" voice accompanied by "the look"
Maa-ommm! I wanted to do that myself!
Maa-ommm! You forgot to __________
Maa-ommm! I was asking Daddy. ("not you" is implied)

Mom. Baby Josh is having a time out 'cause he was hitting the other babies like this *demostrates by hitting herself* I told him he can't play with any toys and shut the door to his room.

Punkin: Mom. Where is the new playground that was there?
Me: Do you mean the carnival?
Punkin: Yeah. Where did the pink playground go?
Me: It visits lots of cities, honey. It only stays here for a few days, before it goes to visit other people.
Punkin: But why?

I was jus' kiddin', Mom, jus' kiddin'.

After we had FINALLY gotten Punkin to bed:
Punkin: MAAAAA-OOOOOMM! ..... Mom! ..... Mom!
Me: (now in her room) Yes, honey?
Punkin: I have a hug and a kiss for you.
Me: Ohhhh. Thanks, honey. How sweet.
*hug* *kiss*
Punkin: Mom? Can I have some fruit snacks, or water, or crackers?
Me: I've been had.

Punkin: *mumbling to herself*
Me: What honey?
Punkin: *big smile* I love you, Mommy.
