Happy Mothers day to all the other moms out there!
My youngest two drew me some pictures, which was adorable. I think that's what I'll miss most when they grew up. Them just being kids. I spent part of the day with my mom, but she works all the time.
Hope everyone else (and their moms!) had great mothers days.

Working on a formula that will stop people growing up or growing old(er).

See we need a formula that will age kids faster when they're babies, then convert that extra time into adorable childhood years. Of course I'm one of the few moms who doesn't like babies very much. Granted that might be because I had two sets of multiples...
Let them stay six or seven a few years. This also would improve test scores dramatically.

Two sets of multiples?
Yeah, that would put me off sex forever.

I think 2-4 is a funny age
I was out running the other day, and this mother was out for a walk with her little girl, probably 2 by the look of her. She spent a couple seconds looking at me confused and then started stomping her feet on the ground in imitation. It was so funny and sweet I couldn't help smiling.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie

That's how they get you.
They act cute and get your attention, then, when you're sucked in, they empty your bank accounts and kill you in your sleep.

Triplets first, then twins. So it wasn't too bad. The first set didn't scare me off. Still hate that the triplets are getting to the age where they want to be more independent from mom and dad. Then in a few years it's off to college, and "Why don't you call? I didn't just get you a cell phone so you could text your boyfriend every twenty minutes. I'm on your contacts list too!"
Didn't like the first two years of childhood, but after that? Loved it. The mispronounced words. The cute way they try to copy you. The way how the worst of things can be fixed with a hug. To me that's the best thing about being a mom. Oh and sitting down and playing with them. Those are the precious moments. Watching them get excited over the little things. If I had it to do over again, I'd have video taped every moment.
