Thursday Thirteen for my Inner Child
Thirteen reasons I am not mature enough to be a parent.
1. I bought my own box of crayons and hid them so I wouldn't have to share.
2. I pray every night for a snow day.
3. When someone picks on my daughter, my first thought is "kick him in the junk".
4. I often end conversations with my son with the words "Okay, fine. You're right then...Except that you're not!"
5. I wish the school would lay off with that whole attendance/tardy record thing.
6. I regularly eat cookies and soda for breakfast.
7. My kids ask me to turn my music down.
8. I loves me some Play Dough.
9. When I made my kids' Valentine's Day cupcakes, I licked the beaters...then ate four cupcakes.
10. I think it's funny to sneak up on my husband and attack him with crappy karate moves proclaiming "I am a ninja!" Sometimes I do it in slow motion and become "Really slow ninja!" of course.
11. I am jealous of my kids' stuff. When was the last time I got a gift this cool?
12. If given the chance, I would totally spend all of my money on makeup and junk food.
13. I often stop and look around and wonder exactly whose life I am in. Who the heck thought it was okay for me to be responsible for other human beings?!?

I hide candy from my kid. This is a grand tradition in my family. My dad did it all the time. I think my Mom found candy my Dad had been hiding when she was cleaning out his drawers after he passed away. He was still hiding it from us even though we were all grown or almost grown.
Shhh! don't let this cat out of the bag or we're all in trouble. Maybe moms all over are doing all this too.
I looked at some of your other posts and noticed that you are in CO and then I saw on your business page that you're in Longmont! Is there any chance at all that you were at the LLL conference in October? I was.
Thanks for stopping by my blog. :D
This is really cute. I remember feeling that way too. Scary business being a mom! (Still is.)
Thanks for visiting my TT and I think I'll go poke around your blogginess.
OMG!!! I do some of the same things! We're not immature....we're ageless! LOL
Happy Thursday!
My 13 are up.

Be thankful that you've held on to what many boring adults have lost. Enjoy it and have fun with the crayons!
My 13 are up.
You are priceless! What a joy to your kids to be "irresponsible" is some really fun ways. Love the list! Thanks for coming by!
LOL great list! I hide crayons too! ;) And, um...I still spend money on junk food. At least it's not all of it.
My TT is up too. I love your template!
Oh my gosh- I'm you! LOL! I even say "I am ninja" with some weird sound effects, I'm so glad my DH is amused! :) Mine are up
You had me at crayons! I got this really awesome art set for my birthday and I could never share it! OK, I did share it with Wifey, but then she did give it to me after all! :) My 13 are up!
yikes, i hate to admit it but i share too many of those as well, it's those cupcakes, they'll get you every time.
i'm doing the tt too.
LOL...I love sneaking up on my husband too!!!
I eat cookies and soda for breakfast too and #10 made me laugh outloud. I might have to try that on MY husband.
My 13 are up.
I think you're spilling the beans. Moms all over do these. We're just big dumb kids trying to raise really responsible adults :)
My 13 are up!

Hahha! Those are like, the exact reasons I am afraid to have children.
I need to be more like you because it sounds like you are having a hell of a lot of fun. Thanks for visiting my TT today and here's my link:

LOL
You are my idol!!!
I hide crayons too!! Oh and chocolate.
Doesn't everyone lick the spatula?
Don't tell but I not only pretend I'm a ninja...I do the secret attack ninja pose.
Which consists of hiding behind large objects and running at my hubby when he least expects it and ninja chopping him. :0)
I really really enjoyed your TT. I can't wait to see what the rest of your site is like. (I'm new to your site, of course. Duh?!)
:0)
OMG! I want to be a kid in your household! LOL You sound like too much fun.
I cracked up at the ninja moves - I do the same thing with my boys.
And the candy? Yeah, I hide it too, only not from my family but because I'm embarrassed by how much I eat of it. lol
Yep, my music is ALWAYS too loud. lol
Thanks for popping by!
Woo-hoo! I found another funny blog! I'm Rollin ya!
I'm going with #4 as my favorite. I like to end arguments with "Guess who's bigger?" when I run out of material.
My TT are up. :)
Hey, I'm that kind of mom too!
Oh No....I shouldn't be a parent either!!! LOL Love this list!!! Thanks for reassuring me I'm not the only one! ;)
Happy Thursday!

You sound like a mighty good mama ;)

Dang ... I love this list. You're hilarious and SO going in my bookmarks. :)
Mine's up, too.

Thanks for the link at Bloggin' Outloud. Since this was my first T13 wasn't sure of the protocol so I copied Lazy Daisy's theme! lol, I get it now. Have a great week. lgp
Mmmm Play Dough!! I will never stop loving the smell of Play Dough.
Sounds like you are a pretty good Mama to me! :)
My 13 are up.
This is my first time here- through Sleeping Mommy. I must say I love the site and I punch my boyfriend all the time claiming to the "The World's Best Boxer". My favorite part is using his butt as a punching bag! He's the ninja, and always threatens a flying-round-house kick, where I promptly knock him out. Haha. Enjoy those crayons.

I love this list!!! I think that if I become a parent, I'll be like this too, considering I have my coloring books now (at the age of 22) and I looove junk food! LOL.
Happy weekend :)
OMG! Aren't we all like that? I want those cool gift cards and how come I can color Strawberry Shortcake?
Great list!!!
Sounds to me like your a great mom! Some of us (me) should take this example! Loved this post! Stacie
