I’m not chatty…like to get to the point quickly. This is why I love succinct phrases like "seriously" and "dude"…comes in handy with two boys that are constantly doing something gross. I also hate repeating myself…which is nearly impossible to avoid when you have kids. I found this "Brush Your Teeth" plaque at the thrift store and thought it might help. Instead of saying "Did you brush your teeth?" I would say "Did you do what the bunny told you?" and then "bunny?" and finally I just pointed at the sign. I don’t think it worked but the font alone is cute enough for me to keep it hanging in the bathroom.
I hope everyone had a good Mother’s Day yesterday. My son made waffles for me…at 6:15. My daughter left the letters M – O – M spelled out in crayons on the counter for me (cute!). My husband got my new MacBook hooked to the external drive with all of my stuff. I don’t remember running to the printer but I must have been moving fast enough because I broke my toe on the chair…and spent the rest of the day trying to keep my feet up.
I love reading your blog. So sorry you broke your toe. That smarts!
I agree with you on the bunny sign….the font is fantastic.
Have a great day!

I love the plaque, too. I would love something like that for our little bathroom off the kitchen.

I could have used that plaque when my kids were small.

Yowser, my other half has broken a couple of toes this year from taking up karate again. From the noise he makes when the children catch one by accident (they can’t always spot his uk size 12s!!!), I know it is very painful. Here’s hoping for a quick recovery.

Aw man! I’m so sorry about the toe! But the rest sounds nice.
I hope they treated you like a wounded queen for the rest of the day!

oh your poor toe!!!!!
So sorry to hear that!
I had to laugh at “bunny” though.
you crack me up. I now want a bunny plaque of my own just so I can say that word, it would sound so much better than the griping I normally do!
hope you get to spend lots of time sitting down doing your crafts, I would make that toe injury go as far as I could if I were you! 😉

I’m glad that your day was nice – kind of, huh?! 🙂 Toe injuries really are a bother! Ouch. Your sign is darling. I know what you mean about clear simple communication (I have 7 kids to play with). Sometimes I wish I could put all the reminders and instructions (nagging…) in writing so I don’t have to say anything that isn’t “happy”! Ha!
