Learn how to take out a window screen before your brother locks you in your room for hours using a bike chain and no phone to call for help!
Don't wear white sweatpants to school any where close to the day you are going to get a visit from Aunt Flo!
Always read the label of any medicine BEFORE you take the wrong thing....cause when you think it cough syrup...trust me it ain't! (then you have to spend the night in the hospital while the Dr's try and decide how to counter act prescription wart remover from your digestive system!)
Don't be so mean to your brother that you make him break his toe.(It's not my fault he tried to kick me and I moved!)
Don't ever think bungee jumping looks fun and decide to give it a try cause you will almost pee your pants in fear!
Don't let a Dr. that looks younger than you try and deliver your child!
Don't make everyone rush from states away for the birth of your child....it's gonna take a while!
Always make sure you buckle your child in the carrier seat BEFORE lifting it off the ground, cause those things flip and he will fall to the floor screaming! (HUGE Mom fail moment!)
Make sure and hide a spare key to your house and car outside. That way you have a key to get back in your house when your child locks you out and then you lock him in the car with the keys while he is strapped in his car seat!! (2nd HUGE Mom fail moment!)
When you get the urge to rush out for ice cream at 9:30, fight it....you will wreck your new sports car!
Don't try and have a party with your step sister while your parents are out off town. Your neighbors will rat you out!
Don't ever go camping when there is even a slight chance of rain.
And last but not least.......
Don't ever be too busy to spend time with your family, it may be the last moment you have with them....and you'll live to regret it every day for the rest of your life.
With Much Love~

Ha Trish too cute. Don't you wish you knew all that you know now then? Lordy Lordy can't imagine what my warning letter would read ;0)
So very true! Don't you wish we could actually have send ourselves letters many years ago!?!?!
Don't know if you were following me then but I wrote a letter to myself on my old blog. Boy, if only I knew then what I know now! Hindsight is 20/20.
Hehehe, too cute!! Love what they say about hindsight...
haha love it! Sounds like a lot of things I would do...especially the icecream at 930! Still not so sure Bird is preggo. She still hasn't gotten much bigger, though she has gotten a little bit bigger. She's due the 25th of august. i think I'm going to have my uncle, a vet, do an ultra sound tomorrow..hopefully we will find out. I appreciate your last comment..Thanks for your prayers!!!
Very good! I have a HUGE list like this to myself as well! Now, white sweats my dear? Oh my....!!!
Great letter and wouldn't it be wonderful if we could impart this great advice to our kids and they would actually listen and learn from it.
