Having a mom for a teacher often means drinking "Dr Thunder" instead of "Dr Pepper", eating "Whales" instead of "Goldfish", buying "Hydrox Cremes" instead of "Oreos" and having conversations like this one today after school ...
Bran: Mom, can we drive through Sonic? I'm starving.
Me: No, Sonic is too expensive and I don't have any coupons. I'll have to go where there's a $1 menu.
Bran: Coupons?! But you have a twenty dollar bill in your wallet!
Me: Yeah, but it has to last me to the end of the month.
Bran: It's ok, Mom, that's what DAD is for. (loved that logic!)
Me: Um, don't tell Dad, but this IS his 20 dollar bill!
True and funny stories from the lighter side of raising my sons and daughter. As the Southern mama of this crew, I'm usually somewhere between "Bless your hearts!" and "Y'all act like you got some sense!" If we ever need to find our way home, we just follow the trail of red clay and glitter.
