Costco funny: “Johnsonville Brats”
My kids are making me drip with sentimentality these days.
Too often it’s easy to poke fun of all the drama of parenthood but my gosh, our latest phase (and that’s what it is–a phase) is full of kindness, funniness, obedience and hard work. I couldn’t love them anymore and I’m so honored to be their mom.
On Saturday, I marveled at how good they’re being lately.
“I have to give a shout-out to Hadley and Bode! We’ve had a busy day and you have been wonderful. Hadley did her chores without being asked, there was no complaining during homework and you both did a great job at volleyball and basketball. I have to commend you on your wonderful attitude lately.”
They beamed as Jamie chimed in: “Yeah, but mine sucks.”
You win some, you lose some.
