Ahh…so this explains it.

Excerpt from Kelly Corrigan’s The Middle Place

“The way I see it, if you have four kids, you don’t really have to do anything else, ever.  Three kids is a handful, but one that many people manage to hold.  If you’re a mother of four, you definitely don’t have to have a career or volunteer for the school fund raiser or even bring an appetizer to the dinner party.  In fact, people give you a lot of credit for wearing both earrings and knowing how to spell chaos and antidepressant.  Four kids gives you a pass for every forgotten birthday,overlooked appointment, and missing form.  Plus, you can be late for everything the rest of your life and never return phone calls.  Who’s gonna blame you?”

Overheard

Over heard the following conversation my 2 1/2 year old son was having with himself.

I am happy now.

I said to me go sit there (pointing to a chair).

I said me why are you angry?

Me doesn't need to be angry when me can be happy.

And now I am happy.

And this is my happy little man.
