Something New

I learn something new everyday- about life, love, my kids and the world around me.

I learned that one cupcake isn't worth the 1 1/2 hour torture of sweat and tears it costs me, not even close.

(Do you think monsters care what they eat? I mean think about it, they can eat and eat and eat and if it makes them bigger than they are happy because the overall goal (one would think) as a monster would be to be BIG and scary? unless you are a nice monster then I suppose you might watch your weight, but it's pretty unlikely.)

The world is a complex place, filled with people with all different thoughts and opinions and regardless of the stares I got today for my crying angel (on the bus) I learned they really can only know what they saw. 4 dirty unhappy, crying kids in an over-crowded stroller with a tired overworked mom telling them to "be quiet on the bus please" in a very stern voice... until eventually the moment came that we could evacuate the stare ridden toxic atmosphere and finally BREATH again. I learned it's okay, they can think what they like.. we are who we are and I do my best everyday, and they don't know that I barely slept and partied the day away with 25 children to celebrate Cinco De Mayo... so I best just smile as I walk off the bus until next time...
