The Mom Test!

The Mom Test

Just a little story I saw on another blog and thought was cute! I love being a mom and taking care of my sweet boy!

I was walking with my 4 year old
daughter. She picked up something
off the ground and started to put it
in her mouth. I took the item away
from her and I asked her not to do
that.

"why?" my daughter asked.

"Because its been on the ground,
you don't know where it's been, it's
dirty, and probably has germs," I
replied.

At this point, my daughter looked at
me with total admiration and asked,
"Momma, how do you know all this
stuff. You are so smart."

I was thinking quickly, "All moms
know this stuff. It's on the mom
test. You have to know it, or they
don't let you be a mom."

We walked along in silence for 2 or
3 minutes, but she was evidently
pondering this new information.
"Oh...I get it!" she beamed. "So if
you don't pass the test you have to
be a dad."

"Exactly," I replied back with a big
smile on my face.
