I don’t know who to give credit to for this, but it is a cute list so I just had to share some of it.
You know you’re a mom when…
- You hire a sitter because you haven’t been out with your husband in ages, then spend half the night checking on the kids.
- You have time to shave only one leg at a time.
- You hide in the bathroom to be alone.
- Your kid throws up and you catch it.
- Someone else’s kid throws up at a party. You keep eating.
- You use your own saliva to clean your child’s face.
- You hope ketchup is a vegetable, since it’s the only one your child eats.
- You donate to charities in the hope that your child won’t get that disease.
- Your feet stick to the kitchen floor, and you don’t care.
- Your purse is crammed with emergency toys, candy and first aid supplies.
- The closest you get to gourmet cooking is making Rice Krispie treats.
- You spend an entire week wearing sweats.
- You say at least once a day, “I’m not cut out for this job”, but you know you wouldn’t trade it for anything.
Stop by Thursday Thirteen to see who else is participating.

I did the #3 a few days ago so I can read a book,the boys didn’t bug me at all bec they thought I’m doing some business
# 9 is too common to me and yeah,I don’t care that’s why i wear slippers at home.
#10 is the reason why i bought a new bag so i can put more candies and toys when the boys start killing each other at the backseat
