Ya gotta love’em (’cause you can’t kill’em)
My husband broke out his tool box the other day and resolved himself to fixing the bathroom lock . Seems the darn thing had decided to stop locking…again. And in a household of seven that can be especially dangerous for the person occupying the facility, trust me. (I think the lock had help in the form of a bunch of kids playing tag with someone trying to pick the lock in order to catch the person hiding inside, but what do I know. I’m just the mom)
So as he’s unscrewing the thing from the door, my youngest daughter walks by.
“Daddy, what’cha doing?”
“Fixing the door lock. Someone broke it again.”
At this point a huge smile broke across her four year old face.
“I did, daddy.”
“Oh, you did?” asked the resident handyman… who was not really surprised by her declaration.
” Yes, and I had fun breaking it too. Are you having as much fun fixing it, daddy?”

About the crazy lady…
—I’m a middle aged Southern woman… deep south ‘Southern’. If I say or use the word ‘honey’ in a sentence (or in this case a review/comment ), It doesn’t mean I’m hitting on you. I’ve had many a person take this the wrong way. This word is simply just embedded in my vocabulary. Maybe hypnosis would help…
—I’m married…..happily married. I’ve been with my first and only husband now for almost 19years. Yes, I’m one of those people. And If one of us should ever become single, it’s because one of us took a shotgun to the other.
— We have five wonderful kids ( between the ages of 13 & 4) that I absolutely love and adore. Okay; so I may have mentioned once, maybe twice, that I wanted to auction them off on EBay. But they were driving me crazy those few days. You try living in a house with that many kids…
—I love photography. Who knows, one day I might make the move up to amateur photographer. It’s such a big step….
— I absolutely love to cook. What Southerner doesn’t? ‘Course if you were to ask my family, they would say that not everything I cook is fit for human consumption. It might give you consumption though….
— Lastly, I’m a stay at home mom…who the neighbors think is nutty as a fruit cake. So I might carry on converstations with my chickens…and yell at the birds stealing my pecans while dressed in my PJ’s. But I’ll have you know, I’ve only had the fire department over once since we’ve been in our new home. I was just tired of doing the laundry and thought it would be easier to just set fire to it all in the front yard and start over. I mean come on, who hasn’t done that?
