My Mother's Day present

Mother's Day morning I slept in. We stayed in bed for awhile after the kids woke up, fully knowing there would probably be messes to clean up as a consequence. But the bed was sooo comfy.... I sent Reid down to check out the damage.
R: Kristen??
Me: Whaaaaaat?
R: Do you wanna come help, or is it Mother's Day?
Me: Why......?
R: You know that brand new package of a zillion rolls of toilet paper from Costco?
R: The boys T.P.'d the house!

I laughed, sighed, rolled over, then decided I'd better get out my camera.



I really do love my boys. Even through the messes.
They are mischievously creative.

  2. HA! My favorite line ever...

    "Do you want to help or is it mother's day!"

    I swear, you need to make a coffee table book of all the crazy messes those little guys get into! SO SO AWESOME! :)

    I am so glad you are such an even headed kind of person and that you are a WONDERFUL Mother - I don't think I could handle all of that.
