More Motherly Musings

1) They should not make white shirts in sizes 6T or less. It is counterintuitive and cruel. I believe they're in cohorts with the bleach manufacturers. It's a conspiracy against moms everywhere.

2)Something will inevitably be moving--either their body or their mouth. Administer instructions for stillness and quiet with great discretion--then be willing to follow through when it doesn't happen.

3)You can never give too many hugs or say "I love you" too many times.

4)Memories are made in ordinary moments, so make the ordinary times good.

5) Big people need to say sorry sometimes too.

6) If you go to Quebec with a 2 year old do not order the beef fondue that you have to cook when it arrives to your table in a cute little fondue pot. You'll be eating steak tartare and people will be cursing you in French.

7) You're never too big for bubble stuff.

8) Bag balm gives wood furniture a luxorius sheen. (See The Virtues of Bag Balm)

9) Often the things we see in our children that upset us are merely reflections of behavior we have modeled.

10)I have not found 1 insect that has survived a spin cycle.
