Things I Learned...Yesterday

We all learn something new everyday, right? I've often said if I could be a lifetime student I would- I love school, I love to learn- However, things I learned yesterday aren't quite what I'd call school lessons- read on.

1. Boys, kids are messy- no matter how much I clean, pick-up, wipe-down, 5 minutes later things are dirty again. I give up.
2. My idea of clean and dirtybird boys' idea of clean is totally different. Clean to them is if there are only a few specks of dirt on random piece of food, there are only 3 globs of toothpaste left in the sink as opposed to 5, and if underwear has only been worn 3 days- ICK! GROSS! I have my work cut out for me!
3. Macaroni and Cheese made by a 9 year old makes a HUGE mess...but is really good!
4. A 7 year old and a 3 year old can not sit in the same wagon without a fist fight to follow.
5. A threat to lose a baseball game can make a perfect 9 year old.
6. 4 boys eat A LOT! a bag of grapes a day? I need a cow, chicken, vineyard, and popsicle garden!
7. a 12-minute nap for mama can do wonders for my attitude.
8. Babybird is demanding and into EVERYTHING! Didn't realize how busy he is but would have it no other way!
9. Attempting to read a book while said babybird is 'playing' and 3 others are resting is a joke- I think I read a total of 37 words.
10. Summer with my boys... PRICELESS.
