The cynical crayon

I'm Cynical,mostly facetious,always bespectacled & hilarious. This where I chronicle the trials and tribulations of life as a stay at home mom.

OK lets not oversell, my friends think that I'm funny; Is that like having your mom say you're pretty?

My daughter: Mommy I like my new shoes! They are so sparkly.

Me: I thought you’d like them. Pink and Brown look nice together.

My daughter: Like you and daddy ? 

Me: Yeah, something like that.

I love watching the clouds.There is something so relaxing about laying in the grass and starring up at the sky. I’ve enjoyed doing this ever since I was little.

Fun fact: Nephelococcygia is defined as the act of seeking and finding shapes in clouds. Thank god for the Greeks, they have a word for everything.

My daughter says this looks like an Elephant. My son swears this is a Cow.

I thought it looked like a dragon. I’m curious, what do you guys see?  

My kids love My Little Pony! Something about those little plastic horses makes them really happy. The other day I went to Walmart and discovered that they make a fake version of them. Score!

Instead of paying 10$ for a little plastic toy. I can pay $1 for a little plastic toy. My kids can’t tell the difference and I get to save some cash.

Win-Win!

Uh-oh…Someone was scared of the car-wash!

Happy anniversary to me! Just recently my husband and I celebrated 10 years of wedded bliss. These rag dolls were made by a close family friend (my children’s Nana) as a wedding gift.

I was trying to think of a way to describe our marriage, but my husband summed up it the best  

10 Years

2 Kids

1 House

2 Cars

3 Cats

1 Bird

7 Trips

Lots of laughs and a few tears. 

To my darling husband, I love you with all my heart and look forward to spending many more decades with you.

 

*Also for anyone who wondered what I looked like, here you go. I’m the one in the White dress. All you need are some glasses and this is pretty much what I look like.  

So after the nice warm weather, the return of the cold. 

Boo Spring!  

Mother`s day cupcakes! Mmmm…these taste much better than flowers :)

My Mother’s day gift! My daughter painted this mug at one those DIY pottery places. We sat down together and created this masterpiece. I’ll probably never drink from it, but I will always cherish it. 

Happy Mothers day everyone!

Riding dinosaurs and digging up Dandelions. This is the perfect afternoon for my son.  

These were taken in the backyard last year. They really have grown quite a bit since then.
