Anyone who knows me (or even those who simply follow this blog) knows that I love to take pictures. I am in the moment with my kids and interact with them all day long, but I have gotten really good at quickly snapping out my iPhone to get a picture of them in crazy, silly, or simply sweet situations. They actually walk around with their play phones saying “Smile! Say cheese!” since they are so used to it. When the boys were younger, I would tell Todd some of the crazy things the boys had done that day, and he would shake his head in disbelief and say that would have been funny to see. From then on, I always tried to take a quick picture of whatever these kids are up to, as long as I am sure they are safe, first. Please enjoy the first installment (I am sure they will give me more material) of Reasons Why my Toddler Is Crying. Enjoy!
Because I wouldn’t let him pull the fuzz off of my fuzzy socksBecause getting up was easy, but he didn’t know how to get downBecause it was FridayBecause he lost his balloon (yes, the one that is in his hand)Because his ice cream was coldBecause the sprinkler got him wetBecause he couldn’t get his pajamas off because the evil duct tape
Because sister had to use a public restroom and the toilet flushedBecause the toilet flushed…againBecause I wouldn’t allow them to let the squirrel in the houseBecause his shirt was trying to eat his headBecause they were in time out {At least they had a guard dog}Because I zipped and snapped his pajamas for himBecause Santa said Ho-Ho-HoBecause he didn’t think this through and valuable things were being crushedBecause his shirt tried to eat him, againBecause he wanted to wear the shirt his brother had on – they were identical shirtsBecause I offered him lunchBecause he drew “boo boos” on himselfBecause brother blamed the destruction on himBecause he couldn’t find his bowlBecause the UPS truck parked next to us drove awayBecause he wanted me to hold himBecause she was too tired to take her shirt off and her feet and arms “didn’t work anymore”Because I ate the piece of banana he declined 3745093 timesBecause I insisted on strapping him into his car seat before driving awayBecause I foiled his attempt to climb out the window and into the tree to see the squirrelBecause I threw his poop-filled diaper in the garbageBecause one brother was sick…and puked on his twin’s back *I think Mommy cried too.*
