Jaia wouldn’t have known mischief if it walked up and bit her at 2 or 3.\u00a0 Even now.\u00a0 But Wes, well, Wes is a true kid.\u00a0 Michief maker, extraordinaire.\u00a0 Take last night.\u00a0 I left a tub of cream unattended while I answered the door.\u00a0 While having a quick chat with a friend, it got silent in the living room.\u00a0 As a mom you know silence means TROUBLE.<\/p>\n

You can’t tell from the picture, but the cream was up to his elbows.<\/p>\n

He’s lucky he’s cute.\u00a0 And that he calls me his best friend.\u00a0 That helps.<\/p>\n

I know I’m not alone.\u00a0 I saw a picture someone posted of their daughter who had coloured ALL OVER her kitchen with a black Sharpie.\u00a0 It happens.\u00a0 Hopefully not in my kitchen, but it happens.<\/p>\n

I came across this<\/a> the other day and fell in love.\u00a0 A group of photographers have started documenting their life with kids.\u00a0 It pulled at the heartstrings for me when I saw the pictures because it reminded me of my own house, so full of life and noise at this very moment in time.\u00a0 We sometimes wish away the mess and chaos, but one day, maybe not too far from today, I’ll look back and miss it.<\/p>\n

And now that we are getting all mushy, if you haven’t watched this one<\/a>…you have to.\u00a0 If you don’t cry just a little, you are a robot.<\/p>\n
