Sounds like my life! Sometimes I fuss at my 4 year old and think, did that really just come out of my mouth? Yes it did Mama! It is nice to know I’m not the only one…:)

We have free movies, but I always forget about them! Which is prolly a good thing. I hope you have a better day next time you take em out. I think you will

First of all, this is exactly why I can’t wait for school to start up again. I’m not leaving this house with all three to do anything- how’s that for keeping it real? Cause the older ones ARE worse.. ugh!

Oh, and I used to manage a movie theatre and you are exactly right. They make no money on those second run movies but ALL the money is in concessions… business, baby! : )

I’ve had those moments too. I think we all have at some point. People who try to perpetuate the image of the “perfect” mom are lying to them selves and not fooling anyone.

Really, I never knew you could be so real!

THIS WAS HYSTERICAL! I laughed out loud…

Oh yeah, that’s me. I’m just here to serve.

and this one:

So I spent the better part of the movie in a cycle of walking out of the crowded theater, kneeling by the potty (and banging my head on the toilet paper dispenser — not once, but twice)

Oh the memories of the free summer movies with 5 children…

Thanks for REALLY making me excited to do this with the grandkids!

It was nice of that lady in Target to say something instead of walking right by. I love it when moms support each other.

Lucky you to find a real mom in target! Days are so much better when you run into people who sympathize with you, or enjoy your children as they make their way around the real world.
I have made a pledge to myself to forget worrying about what people will think if the counters aren’t clean, or the kids misbehave.
No one is perfect, love yourself, and others will follow.

You never cease to amaze me! I agree with the lady at Target – you are a REAL Mom in the trenches – so to speak!

Madagascar is a cute movie! They do have it on DVD if you are really interested in finishing your viewing!
