MckMama & "Not Me! Mondays"

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.



It's hard to see on the blog button above but the little bi-line says, "being brutally honest and living to tell about it." You should check out Mckmama's post before reading mine...
I must confess that I often use this blog (my blog) as an outlet for all the crazy things that go on in my heart and creep through my head throughout each week... So what a joy it will be for me to join "Not Me Mondays" with Mckmama and all her loyal readers... just another way to let you all in on the Heart of the clark family..

*******

And now, Not Me! Monday. A list of all the things that there is no way in tarnation I did this week. And if anyone says that they saw me doing any of these things, they are totally lying.

It is amazing to me how carefree and innocent little kids are about the things in life that are so not, let's just say, socially acceptable...And since I am such a good mother and I teach my children almost everyday in our home, all that is socially acceptable and all that is not..
It was most certainly not me who found myself in the grocery store with my Siah holding his peedo (our family word for his you know what :)... And it was not me who gently pulled his arm away from the task at hand while asking him to STOP... But above all, it was NOT ME, who turned bright red in the aisle when Siah shouted, "My peedo just sticking to my leg, MOM! I have to hold it so that it doesn't stick!"

It was most certainly not me who stayed up past midnight for the past FOUR nights reading endless hours of blogs about people i have never met and probably never will... It was not me who then overslept and woke up abruptly to the sound of her sixth month-old shouting in her own language through the monitor,"Mom! I'm awake! Come and get me please!" NOT ME!!

I am always thinking about the feelings of others above myself... soooo... I would NEVER laugh so hard till I was crying at my son who didn't realize that the sliding glass door was closed... and yep, you guessed it... He ran right into it and BOUNCED backwards right onto the floor. No, not me, I would never laugh at someone else's pain.. especially that of my sweet Siah!

Man it feels so good to be brutally honest with all ya all about all the things that I most certainly did not do this week!!! Hopefully next week will be full of it's own tales just waiting to be confessed on my new obsession with "Not Me! Mondays."

until then...
