Older to younger....


On a nice leisurely walk to my M.I.L's i was having the odd random chat that parents have with their children. My 8 year old son was telling me how he is classed as a geek.
"Mom i do super awesome in Maths and Literacy and in Ict. what did my report say?! Super awesome!, only thing I'm not good at is handwriting, I'm a geek mom because I'm a computer whiz."

As i tried to explain without laughing as the enthusiasm in his voice was just.....funny as, he wasn't a geek it would be classed as intelligent. It means when he leaves school he can go to Uni...."no mom I'm going to college first!"
Ok college then University, where as people that arnt very good at things and not that bothered about them will leave school and do nothing or something along those lines. This leads into a discussion about volcano's!!!!!! Yes wth?? major jump from one subject to another, this is something of the ordinary when speaking with my son.

So as he ever so intellectually decided to inform me, many years ago the earth was broken up into different countries by a volcano and did i know about this?! No was my reply...

His response....."Well when you get younger you will learn about it! You only learn now when your younger and lets be honest mom your old!!!!"

Tut i say....revenge do i ban his from his mosh monsters?!

Poetic Thursday

I thought i would keep in with The Gallery's theme this week and dedicate my poem to Birth. I wrote this poem when i first had my son. OK so its not about the birth of him...but it was the birth of him that gave me the opportunity to write it. Does that make sense lol? A life Story If time could tell a story, i wonder how it would be. If each and everyone should tell theirs, then the whole wide world would see. If i told mine to you today this is how it would be. Not so long ago in a house i lived, with 3 sisters and a bro, A mommy and step daddy whom loved us so In this house lived a man. A nasty man was he He hurt me bad, that made me sad, but a secret it should be. He did things that made me sick, feel dirty all the time And no on came to help me, because i showed no sign. Then i grew up, a big girl now was i And i told the whole wide world about this nasty guy. Nothing good could come from it, i knew that from the start But at least the hurt and pain had stopped, or at least a

Poetic Thursday

I found this poem whilst doing research of one of my OU tma's. I found the 'story' to me heart touching and so real with todays life. Mothers day - inspiring story about mother ( an inspiring motivational story ) A man stopped at a flower shop to order some flowers to be wired to his mother who lived two hundred miles away. As he got out of his car he noticed a young girl sitting on the curb sobbing. He asked her what was wrong and she replied, "I wanted to buy a red rose for my mother. But I only have seventy-five cents, and a rose costs two dollars." The man smiled and said, "Come on in with me. I'll buy you a rose." He bought the little girl her rose and ordered his own mother's flowers. As they were leaving he offered the girl a ride home. She said, "Yes, please! You can take me to my mother." She directed him to a cemetery, where she placed the rose on a freshly dug grave. The man returned to the flower shop, ca

Poetic Thursday- Daddies day coming up to the remebrance of 9/11

I contemplated on whether to save this for sunday or publish it today for my poetic thursday, i figured today was the right one. Im not entirly sure on who wrote this, but it touched my heart and i have to say left me in tears. Coming up to Sunday which is 9/11 take a second to remeber the lives lost. Daddies day Her hair was up in a pony tail, her favorite dress tied with a bow. Today was 'Daddy's Day' at school, and she couldn't wait to go. But her mommy tried to tell her, that she probably should stay home. Why the kids might not understand, if she went to school alone. But she was not afraid; she knew just what to say. What to tell her classmates of why he wasn't there today. But still her mother worried, for her to face this day alone. And that was why once again, she tried to keep her daughter home. But the little girl went to school, eager to tell them all. About a dad she never sees, a dad who never calls. There were daddies along the wall in back, for every
