    Just Five Minutes of Privacy, Please…

    As any mom knows, moments of privacy are few and far between.  For most moms, there’s just no such thing as being able to go to the bathroom by yourself, or take a relaxing shower without interruption.  Mom is always needed most urgently when she’s taking that “me time.” In my case, I’d love to […]

    What goes around comes around…

    I always get such a kick out of practical jokes played on my kids, and there’s nothing better than when you can actually catch it on tape!

    A couple of summers ago, my husband used to play jokes on my daughter.  She might be doing dishes and looking out the window above the sink and my husband would pop up in out of nowhere in front of the windows to surprise her.  It was always funny and always gave us a giggle to watch her reaction.  One day, she thought she’d get him back.

    On this particular day, my husband was in the basement of our house in the room we call the “Man Cave.” My children thought it’d be funny to tap on the window from the outside, and then run away and hide.  They did this several times until my husband finally decided to give them a reaction.

    I had seen the kids tapping on the outside window and knew retribution was coming, but it wasn’t until I saw him husband filling a bucket of water in the kitchen sink that I realized what was to come.

    “Nooooo,” said to Troy.  “You wouldn’t!”

    “Yes,” he said with an evil grin.

    “Oh my gosh!  Okay.  Wait!  Let me get the video camera!” I said and then ran for the camera.  The rest is history and you can see the results in the video link above.  Let’s just assume they won’t try that again!

  • Teenagers: What not to say to win that battle against Mom!

    I love kids – all kids.  I’ve been know to post the bizarre daily antics of my children on Facebook, but I have to say that we all have funny kids if we’d just take a step back from their sometimes irritating behavior and realize that some of what they’re doing is actually pretty danged […]

  • Hello and Welcome to Chatty Cathie’s Endless Chatter!

    Hello Friends and welcome to my new blog!  This is my little corner of the world where I will rant and rave about topics that interest me, and will likely be inclined to tell goofy “Braden and Amber stories” as well as leave book reviews and recommendations.  Pop in from time to time to see […]
