My Shout out to All Retailers

I would like to give a shout out to all of the retailers who strategically place crap toys, candy machines, or some sort of ride on money sucker around your stores and throughout the checkout lanes!  I would like to applaud you for my childs breakdown when they are told NO they may not have a $20 plastic pig, some sort of bracelet thingy, or other unknown break the bank item that is going to fall apart or be forgotten after its been played with in the car on the way home!  BRAVO!!!  You got us!  Or so you think!
I am not one of those parents who gives in to avoid the fit so when I come through your checkout lanes with a child who is convulsing and screaming because they can't have what you are trying to sell and you look at me like I'm a bad parent because they are behaving that way I am going to set that child on your checkout station and I am going to let them sit there and scream until you pay me!!  That's right!  You should owe me and every other parent/care giver something, I don't even care if you give me a damn coupon!  I understand needing or wanting to make a buck but com'on!  You should all be slapped for your own stupidity!
Watch out Old Navy, Kohls, Kmart, TJ Maxx and every other store I frequent........
Mom, Momma, Mommy is coming your way!!!!!

Thats GREAT!!!

My 9.5 year old son had a sleep over this past weekend at his friends house.  I decide to call the mother and check in that evening and when she answers she is laughing hysterically and tells me this:  "So the boys were all sitting around the table snacking and talking when I hear Chase say, "If I get a girl pregnant when I'm 15 my mom is going to cut off my penis!!"  I didn't know what to say to this!  First of all, because I never actually told him that, what I told him was one evening when we were watching a movie and the mother said to the son, "If you get a girl pregnant out of wedlock I will drive up here and cut your thingy off!"  So I simply told Chase to remember that!  He obviously took it to heart!  Second of all, what in the world brought this up in the first place!?!?!?!  And third, OMG!  What people must think we talk about!!!!!  And once again, the phrase, "watch what you say around a child" rings true!  Its right up there with the time he was in kindergarten and the firemen came to talk to them and they were explaining what you should do when the smoke alarms sound.  Chase raised his hand and said "well, when my moms cooking and the smoke alarm goes off she tells us to get a towl and wave it at it til' it stops!" 
AND THE MOTHER OF THE YEAR AWARD GOES TO.............FOR THE 100TH TIME SINCE THEIR BIRTH...............Mom, Momma, MomEEEEEE!
