Wordful Wednesday: Oh The Glamour


My bathtub is usually full of bath toys and the walls are covered in bath crayon scribbles.
I almost always have a car seat in my backseat.
I once went an entire day without realizing I had spit-up on my shoulder.
I have said the phrase "Is that poop on the floor? I think that might be poop."
I know all of the words to "The Hot Dog Song".
I clean fingerprints off of the bathroom mirror more times a week than I'd like to count.
... and I don't have any kids.

& You know what? I wouldn't have it any other way,
because I know what it feels like to...

have a baby snuggled against my chest fast asleep.
hear a child say their first words and take their first steps.
hear tiny knocks at my bedroom door.
have a tiny hand wrapped around my finger.
and my favorite?
GIVE THEM BACK AT THE END OF THE DAY :)
...Oh the Joys of being an Aunt...

  1. I think you're so ready to be a mom. Not to mention your future baby must be super cute, good genes from the mom lol :)

  2. Ahhhh...I love this and think the same thing many days. I know the time will come when I'm ready to have children (hopefully blessed to have them) but for now I'll relish in the fact that when the baby is screaming in line at TJMax, it's not mine:)
