AM I THE ONLY ONE...?


1. Who has 5 items on my grocery list before I’ve finished unpacking my groceries from my current trip?
2. Who wonders where my boobs went?
3. Who irons my baby clothes?
4. Whose young ones take every opportunity to stick their hands down my shirt?
5. Who can bench press 200 lbs with one arm but has tendonitis in the other?
6. Who has called one of the kids by the dog’s name?
7. Who has a hard time switching off the “mommy voice”?
8. Who has screwed up the whole disciplinary process and paid for it for weeks by openly laughing at your kid sneezing milk out his nose?
9. Whose kid can properly order, in the right sequence, his Starbucks request? (kid’s lemonade with ice)
10. Who dreams of carrying a purse that is too small to carry a diaper in it?
11. Who feels like she’s getting a gift when she gets to go to Walmart ALONE?
12. Whose kids have more and better clothes than I do?
13. Who could make a meal just eating the food that falls off my kids
14. Who falls in love with my husband every time I see him cuddling one of our kids
15. Who jokes about ironing my baby clothes?

  1. Okay . . . not a mommy, but:
    I can identify with #1.
    My nieces did #4 (along with the pull it out and look inside - this was also the stage where I had to cut out zip-down shirts with nothing underneath, there were a few questionable moments, unfortunately in public).
    And, though I have not worked in an office for over 2 years, my friends still tease me about my 'office voice' which comes out when I leave messages on their answering machines. Something close to #7.
