I read this article that asked women to complete the sentence, "You know you are a Stay At Home Mom when..." Some of the answers were soo funny and I could totally relate. Really all Moms can relate not just the SAHM. Here are a couple of my favorites.
... you consider a solo trip to the grocery store quality "me" time.
—Guest Kara
you have a bun on the top of your head...and no make-up
on.....and jammies are your daily attire...
—Guest mandi
You are forced to use the toilet while holding your baby
on your lap and with your whining 2 year old watching you and asking constantly
when you are finished.
—Guest Sarah
You stop carrying pictures of your kids in your purse
because they're always with you.

I'm going to share a funny Mommy or SAHM moment of my past week every Monday in honor of this fun article.
Here's mine from last week:
I take my daughter to music class on Tuesdays and she loves it! She dances around, plays all sorts of different musical instruments. She's always very good in the class, but last week she ran off to the corner. She does this every now and then, so I thought nothing of it until I heard her grunting. I wasn't the only one who heard her... The poor little thing was turning all red and grunting very loudly, while the entire music classed watched. She was even holding onto this bar at the wall for support. I was mortified!
I quickly grabbed her and rushed her outside for her to finished her, um, business in private.
When came back into the class, after applying a fresh diaper, well, let's just say we all had a good laugh. ;)
That's my Mommy Moment. What doesn't kill us (of embarrassment) makes us stronger, right?
R was laughing so loud when I read this post to him that tears were coming out. He wants to know if she takes afyer J in this area?
