Instinct?

It was freezing yesterday, a high of 18 maybe? So after school I took the kids to the mall to play at the kiddie park. After about 20 minutes of happily running, climbing and so forth, Eden came over to me and laid her head on my leg with a moan. I picked her up and she slumped into my arms. Something deep within me told me this was not normal and that I should run...run away. I picked her up as fast as I could and ran to a corner outside of the play area...with tiled floors. Not 5 seconds later she was projectile vomiting all over the floor....and my arm. Luckily I had tons of wipes and was able to clean it all up without one person noticing! Amazing! And double bonus...since it was cold I had a coat to cover up the barf all over my arm! This is not the worst story so far. Lucy takes the cake throwing up in the security line at the airport. Luckily Matt had his game on and grabbed a security bin before she lost it. Security just threw it away as "biohazard." Good thing for instincts!

AWWWWWWWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those are the days you start strutting around knowing you totally ROCK!! Bring it on, oh ye children of filth, nothing slows this Mama down.

Side note: Andrew now calls me hot mama. I finally asked him what "hot" meant, and he of course responded with, "like the sun is shining" but trailed off as he knew that didn't seem to make sense in context. whatever. i'll take it.

By the way, my word verification is "shnexed." As in, "one more sassy word out of you and you'll be SHNEXED!"

Okay, so I was laughing at your post and I wanted to comment on it and then I got side-tracked when I read Cheri's post and now I am just laughing too much to remember what I was going to say. So I guess what I want to say is, thanks for making me laugh. You girls keep me sane I swear. Guess what my word verification is "wintri" kinda like where you live in Denver right. It is not WINTRI at all here.

Ronna - if you're an idiot, your MY kind of idiot. It is decidedly WINTRI here today, sigh.

This is why I am afraid to be a mom. I don't think my instincts are as good as yours, or even existing for that matter...
