One of the things I've noticed about blogs I enjoy reading, is that the writer doesn't come across as perfect. They show you all sides, or at least most, of themselves. I'm able to relate to them. So, that's one thing I want to work on with my blog. I'm hoping to be less self conscious about what I share with you all. There are so many times in life when something embarrassing or uncomfortable happens, and I think I'm the only one going through that. Even though I know it's not true, I still think it. But when I read or hear about someone that had the same experience, it makes me feel less alone. So, here's my first (and possibly last) embarrassing story. And naturally it's a conversation with my youngest.
Chloe and I were eating lunch one, and talking. She was being silly, and talking about her milk mustache. I was drinking water, so I said I could have a water mustache. Well, since that wasn't very interesting, I decided to go with a soup mustache. After I wiped it off, I asked Chloe if I got it all. She studied my mouth for a few seconds, and then said, "I see some dark stuff still." She pointed to my upper lip. By this time, I knew what was coming. She said, "Maybe you're growing a mustache! A girl with a mustache, that's so funny!" She was cracking up the whole time, while I was shrinking in my seat, trying to change the subject. It's funny how such a little person can take away every last shred of dignity I had, without even knowing it. Ahhh...the joys of motherhood!
Any of you have any embarrassing stories to share?!

Abbey has a facination with "boobs", as we call them. I hate using "correct" terms with children. Anyway, a couple of Sunday's ago during the invitation song, we stood up to sing and before I knew it she had grabbed my neckline, pulled it open and was looking down my shirt saying "I see your boobs mommy". That is embarassing enough, but it was during church while we were standing up and we sit close to the front. I'm sure my new preacher got a great view. :)
Thanks for sharing Carrie!! That's a good one!
such funny stories! KB likes to stick her hand down my shirt. The more I tell her "no", the funnier she thinks it is. Someone at church on Sunday held her, and she kept sticking her hands in their shirt & feeling around. She kept laughing & laughing. It was so embarrassing/funny.
i pooped my pants once. i was so tired i thought i was only going to poot. but instead i totally pooped in my pants. actually it happened twice while we were building the gym. i was THAT tired. i don't care if anyone knows and i'm not embarassed.
Carrie, that's too funny!
Lance, I don't even know what to say to that, other than I nearly peed in my pants reading that. Just when I think you can't surprise me, you do. I can honestly say that I never want to get to the point that I can poop in my pants and not be embarrassed. More power to you though!! :)
aren't you glad you shared your story? otherwise, you may never have known about lance.
lance, you are so funny but i DO remember how tired you were. that was NOT funny. :)
after a long trail run on a hot day last fall, i ran some errands. not until i got home did i realize i had huge streaks of salt all over my face including a bit of a salt 'mustache.'
now i always check!
