what I learned today

Today I learned that it would probably be safer to let my children play with steak knives than with frisbees.

Today I learned that if you say Dammit! in front of a toddler who has just kicked over your cup of Starbucks coffee, he will stalk you for the rest of the day saying, Mommy, why you say dammit?

Today I learned that if I don’t get to drink the WHOLE grande drip from Starbucks I have a very hard time putting together sentences that don’t start with the word dammit.

Today I learned that Henry is pretty good at choosing birthday presents.

Today I learned that Henry expects to be rewarded (with a gift) for doing a good job choosing a birthday present.

Today I learned that Charlie knows who Bono is.

Today I learned that not having wine in the fridge makes for a long long day with my children.

Today I learned that the words my husband loves to hear me say are, For the love of god, stop at the beer store on the way home!

Today was a good day.
