I came across a writing assignment that T had for his college writing class. The topic was "Heredity vs Environment." As I was reading I came across the following sentence.
"Some examples from my life on traits being passed down through heredity would be my Mom's kindness."
At this point I heard choirs of angels singing. My body seemed to float upwards towards the heavens, the clouds parted, the stream of sunlight enhanced my perfect blond/brown hair highlights and I bowed my head to receive my "You are the Saint of Mothers" halo.
And then I read this.
"However I don't think so."
I have now figured out why God graced with me an ample ass. It is to soften the blow as I fall hard back to earth, and reality.
BAAAAAHAHAHHAHAHHAHHAHAHA.
ReplyDeleteBut for the record...you're still the saint of mothers in my book!
Aw thank you. T - constantly keeping me on my toes.
DeleteI do believe there is something to be said for the lessons that get passed down by the Mother and yes Nicki I agree with you and hell am I missing my Mother right now because the lessons she has passed down and still does are valuable.
DeleteI'm willing to bet he planned the entire thing.
ReplyDeleteKnowing T, I have no doubt.
DeleteT is adorable..
Deleteho ho - there is much to be said for an ample ass
ReplyDeleteand boy was I blessed!!
Deletemaybe THAT's why moms so often have big, round bums!
ReplyDeleteI love the way you think.
DeleteLOL!! Love it!! Kids say the darndest things...
ReplyDeleteThat is funny.
ReplyDeleteI read something my son wrote once..
Q:Who is your hero?
A: my mum because she looks after me all by herself..
brought tears to my eyes.
At least your son doesn't change his mind.
DeleteOh, but he didn't say you weren't kind. Just that maybe it's not an inherited trait. Right?
ReplyDeleteI'm very pleased to know that you are finally grateful for an ample ass! And T didn't inherit that either!
Ample is the word!!
DeleteAww, I think all mothers are kind. You have to be kind to put up with nine months of hell without pinching your baby as soon as you see it for the pain it put you through.
ReplyDeleteI only had 8 months and 3 of those were spent in the hospital. I constantly remind T. 12 hours of hard labor during an earthquake!
DeleteWell if kindness ISN'T inherited then my kids stand a chance of being kind?
ReplyDeleteThat's what you're saying right?
