A few funny moments from our day yesterday:
Five minutes after we got home from school/daycare, the carpet cleaners were knocking on my door. They were 25 minutes early and I was so flustered trying to get everything together for our afternoon out while we waited for the carpets to clean. As I was feeding the girls lunch, the carpet cleaner guys were pretreating the stains on the carpet. Jenna was talking to them and I heard her say, "Hi--my name is Jenna." Then as loud as she possibly could, Abby yelled, "Hi ! My name is Bootybutt!" What a proud moment for me. Really, those carpet cleaner men must think that I am the worst mother ever. In my defense, I contend that the OTHER parental unit in our house got them started on that word first, as a cute reference. Now we are trying to play defense and prevent our children from yelling that word as loud as they can to complete strangers:)
During our afternoon extravaganza, which was to keep the girls out of the house while the carpet dried, we landed at Kohls. I had to return something and was very proud of myself for not purchasing anything else. We stopped in the bathroom, and upon exiting the stall, Abby yells, "My mommy just went pee pee all by herself!" I bet you can imagine how embarrassing it was to walk out of the bathroom knowing that everyone in a 100 foot radius knew what had just happened in that stall.
You might be wondering why I posted these stories, since they ended up being pretty embarrassing to me. Well . . . I have learned that kids sometimes are not appropriate. But they are still hilarious. Pastor's wife or not, my kids are not perfect, and I am not perfect. But I am real. And someday, I can't wait for Abby to read this story:)

If your child saying "Bootybutt" makes you the worst parent in the world then I am in really big trouble.
