I am here rocking babies. I forgot how easily one day slips into another when you have a newborn (or two). If you asked me what the date was and what day it is, I would really have to struggle to think about it………I LOVE IT! These twin boys are such a joy, and loving on their big sis is awesome! Won’t hear from me for a bit…I am busy rocking babies (and loving every second =) ))

After this post I need to find some things to be thankful for =)
1. I am thankful that getting my car fixed was not as expensive as orignally estimated.
2. I am thankful for my family.
3. I am thankful for my health.
4. Last but not least, I am thankful my family is letting me run away to rock babies next week.
For more Thankful Thursdays, visit my friend Iris at Sting My Heart.

It is suppose to be over the hump day. On my way to taking youngest son to school Mr. Nice Police Officer stopped me. I guess both of my tail lights were burned out (which I did not know so thankyouverymuch ).
So after he researched my family history, took a blood test, did a criminal background history (why yes officer I do have a brother who is a cop, and I should know better than driving with no tail lights), he wrote me a warning and told me to go straight to the dealership.
I showed up at the dealership thinking I will be an hour late or so going into work, but it turns out it will be a half of day process. So I have the dealership’s courtesy vehicle drive me to work. They drop me off and as I begin to walk into my building I realize I left my office keys at the dealership…on my keychain. I am the only one who works in my office and it is locked.
So I sit out side my office until I can get ahold of manly man (by the way when you sit on cold concrete your behind freezes, just thought I would let ya’ll know this in case you too get locked out of your office. It was cold outside). Just as I begin to think I need to walk the 3 miles home, manly man calls me back. He tells me to walk to his office (which is three blocks away) and sit there until he is done with a meeting.
So I sit and wait, then manly man drives me back to the dealership to get my office keys (insert much frustration in both of us. In all honesty manly man was nice, maybe it was due to the fact he saw my face already puffy from the crying and my butt looked frozen). The dealership said there is an electrical shortage, so they are fixing that also. Can someone please tell me why when you take your car in they always finds tons more wrong with it. And why it never falls on a payday…NEVER!
What a start to a day. I am already worn out and it is only 10 AM. Can I go back to bed and hit “restart” somewhere?

DES MOINES, Iowa — Jane Hambleton has dubbed herself the “meanest mom on the planet.”
After finding alcohol in her son’s car, she decided to sell the car and share her 19-year-old’s misdeed with everyone — by placing an ad in the local newspaper.
The ad reads: “OLDS 1999 Intrigue. Totally uncool parents who obviously don’t love teenage son, selling his car. Only driven for three weeks before snoopy mom who needs to get a life found booze under front seat. $3,700/offer. Call meanest mom on the planet.”
Hambleton has heard from people besides interested buyers since recently placing the ad in The Des Moines Register.
The 48-year-old from Fort Dodge says she has fielded more than 70 telephone calls from emergency room technicians, nurses, school counselors and even a Georgia man who wanted to congratulate her. (READ THE REST HERE)
As a mother of three boys, one being a teenager, I am telling you sometimes as parents you have to go for the shock value to keep your kids safe. Her son will never forget this, despite how unhappy he is right now, and Mom may have just saved her sons life. I would do the same!
