Smile!
Remember my funk? Yeah, well, I think it’s gone… I don’t like to be unhappy for too long, it’s too depressing!
My eldest was really sick this week and I had all three kids at home with me, because, you know, the 3 year old cannot attend school without his brother…I mean who’s sidekick would he be?! So, my eldest, today, came up to me and started hugging me, it was weird, I mean, a 5 year old boy spontaneously hugging his mom?! I said, “how come you’re hugging me honey?” And he said “Umm, no reason, but can you make us cookies?” They are cute, my kids, they are funny too, and they have started talking exactly like me, you know, “dude, what do you think I am??” or “why don’t YOU pick up all your toys?!” or “WHAT THE...!!!!”, it’s fun when there’s a bunch of “mini me’s” running around the house! Yeah, not really.
Anyways, let’s see, so on my quest to de-funk-ify myself, I spent a Saturday morning watching Disney’s tween shows, and I saw Hannah Montana for the first time, oh Jen would be so proud! You know being a grown up is highly overrated! Seriously, I mean, like, wouldn’t you, like, so rather, like, you know, like, umm, shop for like, umm, lip gloss and, like, you know, hair scrunchies, instead of, I don’t know, milk? I know, I am a sad, sad person, who is very easily amused, especially by tweens and their ohmygod-what-am-I-gonna-do-he-looked-at-me dramas!
But you know what really amuses me? The Creator’s sense of humor! If you’re not one to believe in a higher power, then I guess you can call it coincidence, but the undeniable irony of life, the plans that are clearly created for us and not by us, the complete unpredictability that is strangely not random, but more like a really well plotted script, just makes me smile and reminds me of the awesomeness of The One.
Finally, you know how being 30 brings on strange behavior, well, I am pondering embracing the pigtail look, do you think the mousehunter will enjoy it?
