Here are the latest reasons why I will never win this award:
-Today in the kitchen I found Ammon, my 1 year old, sitting by the garbage can, sucking on the lid from a can of soup. That's right people...the most sharp, dangerous, disgusting piece of garbage...and he found it and was eating it. Luckily he did not get cut, but I almost hurt him by grabbing it so fast away from him. I am so awesome.
-I baked a sheet of cookies (about 9) and then ate every single one of them while the kids were napping. When they woke up they smelled the cookies, saw the evidence, and then wanted some. But I told them no because too much sugar isn't good for our bodies and gave them carrots and grapes. I am such a good example.
-I am abandoning my children this weekend to go worship at the Great and Spacious Building in Hollywood. If you watch the Emmy's be sure to look for Joe and me. We will be the ones wearing the "We-left-our-kids-at-home-and-feel-guilty-but-happy" looks on our faces.

But my dear, you were There to find Ammon getting into trouble (too many moms are not); you were There when the children went to sleep and when they woke up (how nice for your kids!). You are wise enough to nurture your marriage and pursue personal interests. These are all good things. I'm not commenting on the cookie thing because in a moment of stress today, I ate a LOT of popcorn to get me through. We moms are not perfect, but we are there and we try, and that is what counts.
I LOVE! the stories and I think you are an AMAZING mother... : )
