10 things I say every day


Inspired by Jenny's post, I decided to think of 10 things from my own every day vocabulary.  (Warning, some portions may not be suitable for certain readers!)  In no particular order:

1.  I love you!
2.  Talk to you later (or "ttyl" in the case of my online conversations with Mom, Granny or Chas, because that is how we roll.)
3.  Did you poo or just pee??
4.  How many times have I told you...???
5.  Go wash up.
6.  No, you don't need a snack right now.
7.  Please remove me from your call list (sometimes prefacing "before I contact the FCC!!)
8.  Oh!  No poo!! (with a big smile, upon opening a diaper)
9.  Please give the baby a toy from her basket.
10. God bless you!

Anyone care to share your own list?  I had absolutely no trouble coming up with these.  That tells me just what a broken record I am most of the time.  Sigh.  I think it's the fate of all mother-kind.

By the way, did you know the phrase is, "all of a sudden" rather than "all of the sudden?"  I did not.  I have often wondered but today I finally took the initiative to look it up.  There's my "learned something new" for today.  Was it yours?  If not, please don't tell me.  I would hate to know how ignorant I have been, not knowing which was correct, for so long.  Just pretend you didn't know either.

Very cute list. It was easy for me to come up with my own. I have also enjoyed reading your recent blog enteries and seeing your updated photos. Very attractive family. Thank you for the card you sent. It was funny and I got it at a time I needed some encouragement.
