Joey (eyeing my funky pajama bottoms): "I'm going to buy you new pants for your holiday." (Mother's Day)
Joey: What the heck are these?
Me: Curly fries.
Joey: I don't eat wiggly tangley stuff.
Joey: Can I have Doritos?
Me: No.
Joey: It can be our secret.
Me: You don't know how to keep a secret.
Joey (insulted): Yes, I do. You have to stay real still.
Me: Showing Joey a picture of himself on his first birthday.
Joey: Studies it very closely. "I didn't know I used to be a girl."
Me this morning to Joey: "Did you know we got you four years ago today? You were a little bitty baby." Joey: "Did you feed me ants?"
Me: "No, we did not."
Joey: "Did you let ants crawl all over me?"
Me: "No, we didn't."
Joey: "Oh." (He was very disappointed...we really need to get rid of the ants in our kitchen.)
Going to school district where high school located. Joey: "I don't wanna go to school!"
Me: "I'm just dropping something off. Plus, this school is for big kids."
Joey: "you mean Daddy goes here?"
I’m a fun-loving foster and adoptive mom juggling a teenager, a tween, and a toddler, all while navigating the wild world of homeschooling. I recently took the plunge and moved to a new state without ever setting foot there—talk about an adventure! This is my real-life story, filled with chaos and joy. My mission? To swap out traditional products and pharmaceuticals for healthier, natural options for my family. Oh, and I really miss writing, so I'm excited to weave that back into my life!
