If all my drafts ever get published in some kind of glitch, I will be exposed for how often I go, “This seems like something I should fact check” and never actually… do that 😂😂😂

Could I use saves or likes? Yes.

But I don’t 💀

My kids recently discovered middle names exist. So they’ve been practicing all of the kid names and middle names.

So the other day the oldest was reciting his and his siblings’ “whole names” so I asked him what my whole name was and without missing a beat he said “Mama Elizabeth”. So I guess that’s my name now. First name Mama, middle name Elizabeth. 😆

Moving into a new house and there are SO MANY bookshelves currently in my living room. It makes me feel like I’m in a library.

I should have done other things, probably.

But instead of that, I made dinner rolls and am now just sitting on my couch eating one.

No one ever said Mom life was glamorous.

If they did, they might have lied.

It was a whole saga, but I managed to break my stove on Christmas Day. I finally got a new one today and let me tell you I’m thrilled to be done cooking with only an electric waffle maker, a slow cooker, a pressure cooker and a microwave.

Me to husband: Oh, child is showing interest in reading but refusing to tell me what he knows, as usual.

Husband: He’ll probably just do it one day all of a sudden, like he always does.

Less than two hours later, a video of a fancy house for sale is playing on our television. The only audio is dulcet orchestral hold music. Each room flashes by with a label on the bottom.

Kid: “That’s the Master Bedroom”

Husband and I just casually stare at each other.

Pandemic Christmas with three kids is: wrapping the presents from all of my family members to all of my kids because they can’t bring them in person.

My tape has been replenished, my apple cinnamon tea has been reheated and I am ready.

Later, we are making a gingerbread village that is probably going to be ugly as sin because my kids are small, but they love it!
