He NEVER Ceases to amaze me (SUCH a parent thing to say...)!




Seven children at Alvin and the Chipmunks couldn't have gone smoother! When my big eight-year-old delivered the cake to all of the guests (or I SHOULD say "After he INSISTED that he deliver the cake to his guests), he stopped me from wrapping it and INSISTED that we needed "...just ONE MORE piece! MOMMY--just cut ONE MORE piece!" I argued with him that everyone was fed, so he should sit down and eat HIS (eggless) treat. He was adamant and I finally wondered why I was fighting with him.I cut and handed him the extra piece and he handed it back to me. 'YOU didn't get any cake and YOU planned this great party!" I love my boy.

  2. I KNOW! I think he does it so that I can feel even MORE guilty about those not-so-sweet moments! But I'll TAKE it!

  3. Yep, those are the moments we live for! This is such weird timing! I just started blogging in Bristowbeat.com, a new online newspaper as a Mom too! I shared the first post on my Facebook wall! Let's keep 'em coming!
