YOU SEE BROWN STAINS ON THE CARPET AND THE FIRST THING THAT COMES TO YOUR MIND IS NOT CHOCOLATE.
FINDING AN OLD M&M BEHIND THE COUCH IS NO LONGER A TREASURE BECAUSE YOU CANNOT BE CERTAIN WHERE IT WAS BEFORE IT JUMPED BEHIND THE COUCH.
SEEING KATSUP SPATTERED ALL OVER YOUR BATHROOM DOES NOT RAISE ALARM
YOU DON'T FREAK OUT BECAUSE YOU HONESTLY DON'T KNOW WHERE ALL YOUR KIDS ARE. YOU ARE JUST HAPPY THEY ARE NOT BY YOU.
YOU ONLY CLEAN THE TOILET WHEN YOU KNOW YOU ARE GOING TO BE THE ONE TO USE IT NEXT.
WHEN YOU EAT DINNER AT HOME AND IT TAKES 30 MINUTES AND THE FOOD IS ALWAYS COLD, THEN YOU GO OUT TO EAT, YOU SCARF IT DOWN IN 5 AND YOUR TONGUE IS BLISTERED.
WHEN SHOWERING EVERY OTHER DAY BECOMES A LUXURY.
WHEN YOU CAN SLEEP THROUGH YOUR HUBBY'S SNORING BUT IF A KID COUGHS IT WAKES YOU.
WHEN THE MESSIEST ROOM IN YOUR HOUSE IS NOT YOU CHILDREN'S, BUT SHAMEFULLY, YOURS.
WHEN YOU HAVE ONLY TWO PAIRS OF JEANS TO WEAR BUT A TON OF SHIRTS AND THEY ARE ALL STAINED.
WHEN YOU CAN FALL ASLEEP ON THE COUCH WHILE THE KIDS WATCH SESAME STREET, WAKE UP AND BE ABLE TO TELL WHAT THE WHOLE EPISODE WAS ABOUT.
WHEN YOU FORGET TO COMB YOUR HAIR, OR EVEN TAKE OFF YOUR HOUSE SLIPPERS, BEFORE YOU GO RUN ERRANDS BUT ALL THE KIDS CLOTHES ARE CLEAN, HAIR BRUSHED AND SHOES TIED.
WHEN THE ONLY TIME YOU GET TO TALK TO GROWN UPS IS IM'ING THEM ON THE COMPUTER.
WHEN YOU HEAR HUBBY PULL UP YOU BRUSH THE COOKIE CRUMBS OFF YOUR MOUTH AND TRY TO LOOK BUSY.
K-THAT IS ALL I GOT RIGHT NOW. IT IS PAST 10PM AND I GOTTA GET MY SORRY BUTT TO BED. IF YOU THINK OF ANYMORE PLEASE POST THEM SO I CAN ADD THEM TO THE LIST. (GIVING YOU THE CREDIT OF COURSE.)
