Friday Top Ten

I saw on someone's blog where they had a Thursday 13 List and listed all the things that she repeats day after day to her children. I'm too late for the Thursday 13, but I'll give it a whirl.

1. WHERE are your shoes?
2. James.Daniel.Clark!!!!
3. That better not be poison oak on your arm.
4. Do I need to find something for you to do? Because I will and I don't think you will like it.
5. I don't understand. This room was spotless one hour ago.
6. Do you WANT a spanking? (Why do we ask this to our children?)
7. It's time for the cleanup dance. (I torture my children by making them watch me sing and do the cleanup dance. If they don't applaud and look happy I make them get up and do it with me. I know, mean momma.)
8. What in the world were you thinking?
9. Kindness, please. What would be the kind thing to do?
10. Any variation of "GET" Get down, get up from there, get out, get here right now!

Do ya'll have any good ones to add?

  1. Ok too too funny. Here are a few favorites of mine. In fact I reflect upon them often because my kids are goof balls.

    1)Why is the umbrella in the bathtub??
    2) After driving a few hours to the mountains of Utah one year to get a Christmas tree...You don't have socks on???It was at least 7 inches of snow.
    3)No you cannot wash the cat in the washer.

    So now you get my insanity!
    I wrote a post on homeschooling on my penofjen.blogspot.com blog if you are interested.

    I must add this one that just happened. We have rubber gloves because of the farm and such. My 16 year old just came out of the shower and said to me, Mom I took so long because I found the rubber gloves in my pocket. He showed me them filled with water clasped closed with my barrettes!!! Life is pretty hilarious if we keep in check with post like these.

  2. Oh my goodness! This is too funny! I have 5 daughters, and they all like to mother hen each other. So I find myself saying "Who's the momma? I am!" all day long.

  5. OK. You sound like MY mother.
    Keep in mind that one of mine is in College and the other one is grown and on his own, but here's mine:
    1. NO!
    2. Haven't we already had this conversation?
    3. If you wait a little longer to do it, it probably won't matter any more.

    2. Oh my gosh, she poo-poo'd again (and not in the litter box).

    4. I hate the cats.
