Mothers of teens know why some animals eat their young.Children seldom misquote you. In fact, they usually repeat
word for word what you shouldn't have said.
Children: You spend the first 2 years of their life teaching
them to walk and talk. Then you spend the next 16 years
telling them to sit down and shut-up.
Insanity is hereditary. You get it from your kids.
I love to give homemade gifts. Which one of my kids
do you want?
Children are natural mimics who act like their parents,
despite every effort to teach them good manners.
Cleaning your house while your kids are still growing is like
shoveling the drive before it has stopped snowing.
"There is only one pretty child in the world... and every
mother has it." - Chinese Proverb.
Children will soon forget your presents. They will always
remember your presence.
The main purpose of holding children's parties is to remind
yourself that there are children more awful than your own.
Grandchildren are God's reward for not killing your kids.
"Who are these kids and why are they calling me Mom?"
You can fool some of the people all of the time and all of
the people some of the time, but you can never fool mom.
A child's greatest period of growth is the month after
you've purchased new school clothes.
Anyone who says "Easy as taking candy from a baby"
has never tried it.
The best inheritance parents can give their children is
a few minutes of their time each day.

That's funny!
Your upbeat blog posts never disappoint! Yours is one of my faves!
This was so funny! I love love your blog and all the beautiful pictures of your beautiful family! Ever since i went to Hawaii and saw you guys and where you live I have been so envious what an amazing place to raise your young kids. Now that i am in San Diego I don't feel quite as envious, but still! We LOVE San Diego it is great, I don't think we will ever leave.
So my twins were born march 1st. They were 3 wks early, but yeah our kids are pretty much the same age. We have got to get Danny and Kali together. They are both blonde, blue eyed and beautiful. Danny was born Nov 2005 was Kali in Feb 2006? We are on the same time line basically! Miss you guys hope you are doin good!
I am dying about the line that kids repeat everything you say word for word. Maile just swore at the babysitter....who is the bishops daughter. What the.... Unfortunately it was "my" swear word not Darin's. I know you are dying to know what she said. so here goes. She told her "I don't want to eat those damn noodles, give me some chips!" OMG, I couldn't beleive it. We have always had a no swearing policy in our house, but now we actually follow the rule!
Love your blog although I hate you for living on the beach. :)
