{I told you so!}

the weekend has been so very "normal", so ordinary that I have been bored out of my skull. The upside, my house is clean and my laundry is done. And I am currently caught up on "The Real Housewives of Orange County" and I am super excited that the Real Greenlee is coming back to "All My Children" because they have been promoing it all weekend on SoapNet. I know that some of my scrapbooking friends are asking, why aren't you scrapbooking/???? Why? Because when my family is home they make me crazy when I am trying to scrapbook and I just decided to not even attempt it this weekend because last weekend it was a disaster. The big drama this weekend was my husband doesn't ever listen to me, I know that some of you are finding this completely shocking, but its absolutely true! He took both kids to their eye exam and it was completely understood that Action wasn't going to get contacts for at least a year. The kid doesn't brush his teeth unless he's told, at least twice, he doesn't cut his dirty little finger nails (I do), he only showers when I tell him, then he argues that he's not "that dirty", he will wear clothes that he has dragged out of the dirty clothes that could probably walk on their own because they are just THAT bad and I know for a fact that he's not ready for the responsibility of contacts. But Mark decided otherwise and all weekend Action has been wresting with them and there has been feet stomping, fist pounding, and tears and I am sitting in the background wanting to scream, I TOLD YOU SO!!, but I think that the look on my face is probably saying it all!!

Hasn't he learned yet that MOMMA is always right? Well about that kind of thing.

Mom's always know what their kids are capable of. Men! LOL I remember when my husband first decided to wear contacts at age 42, he did the same thing....temper tantrums, feet stomping etc. So young man or big man it doesn't matter. I am sure he will get the hang of it after a little practice. :)
