You are hilarious and I love your humor and candor. As a mom to a 5 and almost-8 year old and I work part time, so much of our maddening world is divided between being supermom and being superwife and superphotographer and maybe even superdaugther. Keep the humor going b/c if you can laugh, you can do and be anything. I love the toilet story and my 5 year old boy is a motor mouth so there are MANY times I tune him out and many times he is trying to tell me something important or profound! What a great story tho!

My wife and I have been in Bali a few days now, and I've started posted some photos and narrative on my blog. I'm inspired to write my own top ten reasons anniversary trips are better than honeymoons. I think every couple needs to write their own, because you'd see 1000 different lists! Leslie and I have been thinking about taking the kids somewhere foreign to live for a year or two. Bali seems that kind of a place (as do Provence and Tuscany and Buenos Aires), but Leslie just read about all the fungi and parasites that one can catch..it's fre-a-king her out (especially we just went rafting in a river). I hope you enjoy my blog (or as my semi-whenever-she-feels-like-being computer literate wife calls it, my blob). :) http://bozinny.wordpress.com Me Ra –

My 9 yr old and 4 yr old daughters still take daily baths together and it's turned into being their best playtime of the day. They have all kinds of crazy games and "let's pretend" going on. I find myself yelling out, "wash your hair", "is your hair rinsed really good?", "start finishing up". "no more fighting or you're gonna get out", "are you almost done?", "time to finish up", "just a few more mintes!", "ok girls 5 more minutes!". Yep, it's bad...these are all in succession during one bath time. I sound like a loser mom, I think mostly because they're always completely shocked when I show up to hand them their towels and get them out! In fact, it's time to go get them out now, my little prunes. But it gave me a chance to do a little "surfing" of my own so guess it's not so bad lol. This reminds me a lot of bathtime in my home.

I wish I always had my camera on hand to catch those moments. But the part I related to best was your husband saying 'Blaze is lucky I didn't go up there" I always wonder how my husband never feels any guilt in those situations. That's what mommy's are for. And I realized nomatter how many bad mommy awards I have on my wall my two kids couldn't care less cause I'm their mommy!! It's so great to be a mom!
