The "other" mom!

Robert is always getting frustrated with me because the kids will be saying "Mom, Mom..." and sometimes I don't answer. What he doesn't understand is most of the time I'm not sure whether they are talking to me or the "other" mom! Case in point...

Yesterday, Grace and Felicity had been playing house while I was making dinner. Felicity came over to me and said "Mom, can you unbuckle this for me." In this instance, I guessed she was referring to me because I was the only other person standing in the room. As I bent down to unbuckle the backpack, Grace came around the corner and said "What? I'm right here." To which Felicity responded, "No, the other mom!"

See I'm not a completely terrible mom when I don't answer everytime one of my girls says "Mom!" Robert doesn't understand that at any given moment there could be 3 "other" moms standing in the room!

5 Lucky People

I saw this on Robert's cousin Ashly's blog and thought it would be fun! She has always seemed creative and talented and I have been itching to create somethings myself. So here goes!

Another fun blog game!

The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you. This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:
1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make! (Though I hope you will!)
2. What I create will be just for you.
3. It'll be done this year. {might be a little while}
4. You have no clue what it's going to be. I don't even have a clue what it's going to be.
5. I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.

The catch? Oh, the catch is that you must repost this on your blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog. The first 5 people to do so and leave a comment telling me they did win a homemade gift! It may not be great, but it will be fun!!

P.S. I have a lot to post about but am trying to catch up from the week I took to go to ashlees
