My Sentiments Exactly

Sally, pointing to the desk where all of my bills are spread out: "Mom? Dis?"

Me: "This? These are bills. Can you say bills?"

Sally, nodding her head: "Bull."

HAHAHA! I hear ya! That is too cute. Love your posts. Sorry I have not been blogging lately! I have been taping shows. What was I thinking?? Hah! Maybe it is a good thing I wasn't thinking! If you get a minute, check it out. I'd love to hear what you think. I am inviting all my blog friends over for feedback. http://www.dishingwithdebbie.com Your stories are great and my whole idea behind this show is for other moms to share real stories like you do. Sponsors are donating neat prizes like chocolate baskets and mini-chef aprons and way cool cookery stuff. Anyway, I'd love to hear from you.
