Brock and Trey were both being a bit demanding last week. It was lunchtime, I was hungry and THEY were hungry, the phone was ringing, the kitchen needed a major cleanup, and I just couldn't do everything all at once. I am sure you parents out there can relate. So, I said to Brock, "I only have 2 arms! I'm not an octopus, ya know." It was intended to lighten the mood I was in but I think Brock took it pretty serious.
8 days later: Just got back from swimming and we are all thirsty, hungry AND tired...
Brock-Mom?
Me- Yeah, Brock.
Brock-I want a drink.
Me- (Cutting the chicken nuggets in half for Trey) I'm workin' on it
Brock-Mom?
Me-Yeah, Brock. (sounding irritated at this point-blood sugar pretty low by now)
Brock-I'm so sorry you only have 2 arms. I wish you had 7 arms. Then you would get everything done that you want.
I just laughed and shook my head in amazement of the great memory he has. But, Brock-Octopus have 8 "arms", or are they legs?
That's a cute post! No kidding, wouldn't it be nice to have more than 2 arms/legs (?).
ReplyDeleteCrazy to think you only have 32 wks to go and then you will be a mom of 3! I'm glad you're doing it first, ha!
