On the way to the store this afternoon, my son was particularly irritable and whiny. I realized, and exclaimed aloud, that I forgot to give him a snack. My ever-observant and critical four-year-old daughter piped up from the back, “What kind of a mother ARE you?!”

No Scooby Snacks? I’m appalled too.
I don’t know why I even associate with this “mom”!
I like scooby snacks.
I’m not sure I’ve ever had them. I should remedy that!
Too funny.. guess that is grounds for Mom being tarred & feathered
Or honeyed and corn flaked. (I have a post on here somewhere where someone did something like that. Way to know my posts, eh?)
For shame! But hey my kid would totally throw a fit too if I forgot his snack lol.
Oh yes. Don’t we moms all know it!
Lol! Just this week, I was telling my 6 year old son the story of the boy who cried wolf. At the end, I asked if he understood and he said, “yeah that boy had really bad parents. Who doesn’t go looking for their kids?” The morale of the story was totally lost on him.
That’s terrific! If you permit it, I’d like to feature your story as a regular post. I’ll just need your name (it doesn’t even have to be your real one) and your number of children. More people need to read and laugh at this one!
I guess just Little Miss Wordy is fine. I have a daughter who is 10 & a son who is 6. Thank you! Love your blog! Will definitely be following you!
Well, thank you. I guess I’ll just have to do the same!
Sorry to say that you’re a wonderful mother compared to me. I was so busy planning the one-year-old birthday party for my firstborn that I forgot to give him lunch on his first birthday. I think we have a picture of him picking up a handful of dirt to see if it was edible, which was when I remembered he hadn’t had lunch.
AAHH! You’ve taught him to be resourceful. That’s good!
