Today’s post is brought to you by Mama Kat’s Writing Prompts

Write a list of 10 things you have said to your kids that other moms might not say.

1. I like your sister better.

2. And I wanted a boy. Sometimes you don’t get what you want in life.

3.  Shake it off.

4.  Shaken not stirred.

5.  Go play in the street.

6.  Let’s bake cookies for dinner.

7.  You’re my favorite.

8.  Pour mommy a glass of wine.

9. Why don’t you two just fight ’til the death and be done with it.

10.  I can’t wait to come over to your house, walk all over your furniture, spill drinks on your carpet, write on your walls and break your favorite things

  1. Lol! That is awesome! I am totally feeling better about my own list! We all say things to our kids that we probably shouldn’t! I am totally stealing some of your phrases!! Lol! Thanks for sharing!

    Number 10 is my favorite. I’m hanging on to that one so I can use it in a few years!
    Also, playing in the street is completely fine depending on exactly what street it is.
    Found you via Mama Kat!

  4. I literally laughed out loud at number 9 because I have said that at least fifteen thousand times to my two boys who fight constantly!

    My youngest tries to eat cookies for every meal. And is so excited on the nights when I say that’s what’s for dinner!

  7. avatar Trish says:

    Right? I cannot wait to jack-up their houses!

  8. avatar Trish says:

    Yes, we are all guilty of saying things to our kids that we probably should have not said. Glad I could make you feel better about your list! I think that’s my greatest service with this blog – I make other moms feel a lot better about themselves. Haha!

    Funny sayings. I liked #10. And I’m sure #8 comes in handy.
