So we all have days where we wish that crying were an answer to life's greatest challenge (aka motherhood). Seriously, from a kids perspective, if I could cry and get someone to do something about it, I would. Especially for me because I am not a crier. I had heard the 45th whine call of the day, and this was at breakfast before I called it quits! I've had it! I called on the heavens to just give me some good old-fashioned tears.......I would just feel so much better. And then Bella says the prayer which goes something like this. "And daddy can be mean sometimes but it's ok, bless mommy to be nice..." etc. etc. etc. Now if guilt had anyplace in my world this may have worked. But what did work is that I did cry, it's just that I was laughing so hard at the insanity of it all. Tears of a different color.

Why do Daddys get away with being mean sometimes but Mommys are just mean all the time?
That is so funny about the prayers. Ryan and I teach the Sunbeams and we always look forward to the interesting prayers.
P.S. Harrison is cuter than a button!
Oh I love those prayers! We hear the same type of things all of the time from Maya! :)
Will you be in Utah in July? If so, we need to plan a get together!!!
Oh, look at that adorable Bella of yours all sassa frass. Love the crying...love the tears...gotta love being a momma and the lessons that come with it. You are awesome, Kristin.
That picture of Bella is priceless!
Tears were all around that day. It really does help to cry. We miss you and love you. wish so often I was there to fill in once in awhile. These kids are so innocent, pure and honest. Love you, mom.
