I seriously love this list… let’s me know I’m not alone.
Although mine would have:
Stop jumping on the bed.
Stop jumping off the landing.
Stop jumping off the couch.
Stop jumping off your step stool.
🙂
that is a wonderful list. it’s amazing that moms can say so many things so many times with so little results.
Mike and I had such a good laugh at this. Wonderful stuff. It’s nice to know these comments stay the same from one generation to another. It reminds me of Anita Renfroe’s YouTube video of “The Mom” sung to the William Tell Overture.
We should just make a giant poster and hang it on the wall….so universal!
glad I’m not the only one!
Too funny!! As the mother of 17 month old and 2 1/2 year old boys I have a feeling I’ll be saying a lot of those comments very soon!!
Have you been living at my house??????
By the looks like we’re all in good company! I would also add: 4 on the floor (legs to the chair, that is 🙂
OMFG… this is great! I always seem to get something like via some chain-email that was just made up… but this is the real deal and makes it about 100x more funny!!!! I’ll be keeping this one around.
