The mommies have spoken again!!!! Looks like we have a new winner to join our winners tab! With 28% of the vote, you chose Shauna and Karin's "Celebration of Spring" as this week's CUTEST craft! Congratsies to Big S and Big K!!!
In other news, it's been a hard hard week for me. Sometimes I just have to deal with so much and it's not always easy to be the example to other moms. I make my so way cute crafts. I drive my girls around to their various competitions. I completely deck the house with whatever holiday decorations are in season. I do it ALL. And I do it for you--so you'll have someone to look up to. Someone to show you how to act in order for others to understand that you care about your children. Because BELIEVE ME WHEN I SAY there are so many moms out there who don't care ONE OUNCE about their kids' well being. I saw a mom just the other day WHO LET HER KIDS WATCH TELEVISION!!!!! And I thought, "I'm sorry that your kids mean so little to you that you would let cable news channels raise them!" (But you know me, I don't judge other moms who don't have enough motivation or love to give their children what they need. I just help.).
I think the biggest reason I'm so discouraged right now is because of what's happening in the PTA again. I ran for president last year and lost AGAIN because of some jealousies in the program. Elections are here again and this year I intend to beat June Snapple--June Snapple, who thinks it's acceptable to let moms attend our meetings WHO HAVEN'T EVEN MADE THEMSELVES LOOK PRESENTABLE!!!! Seriously, June Snapple is the WORST PTA president IN HISTORY!!!! The PTA has ABSOLUTELY fallen into total embarrassment since she took over.
The only problem is, I haven't been allowed to attend meetings lately and the PTA doesn't even consider me a member anymore (MORE JEALOUSIES THAT I DON'T EVEN HAVE THE TIME TO GET INTO RIGHT NOW). The whole thing disgusts me. But if June Snapple thinks that's going to stop me from running for president SHE SHOULD THINK AGAIN (or should I say for the FIRST TIME IN HER LIFE!!!). I already have my first campaign slogan ready: "June Snapple is one bad apple! Vote for a mom who has kids that won't end up in prison!"
Anyway, I'm off. Fortify is having her pictures taken today and then it's off to the next round of a competition that is beneath her. I tell you, it will be nice when this pageant is over and we can start focusing on regionals!!!

That slogan is gold, Eli. If you don't win I'll take it as a sign that the end of the world is upon us.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Myke. I will likely need your support.
DeleteDear Eli, first let me say....I LOVE your blog. It is so refreshing to see someone put into picutres and words what I have so long tried to do in my own life! My kids are pretty much grown, I am a grandma of 3, almost 4. Time goes by so quickly, and we must accomplish as much as possible with the time we have. My children are pretty impressive, but I don't think I caught the vision early enough. Congratulations on all you and your children do.
