So you always knew this was a big house; you just never realized it was a castle! Well, I didn't either until I saw a flag flyin' atop the WWW announcing Mother's Day--and I thought it was about time my kids realized their mom was a queen, and should be treated as such.
And so with a wave of my magic wand--probably my broom from the closet--Peggie's Place has now become a castle; and Peggie has become Queen for a Day, an honor she bestows upon herself--for what other kids have 300,000 people at their doorstep when they're tryin' to ride their bikes, or heaven forbid, mow the lawn? What other kids have to settle for pizza when the WWW crowd is eating elephant stew! And what other mom travels the world, talks to its inhabitants, does the laundry, makes dinner, taxi-drives two kids around the planet, and STILL has time to ask THEM a million questions!
Now that we've established the validity of her queenship, and she's FINALLY stopped talking, what's the TOP TEN QUESTIONS that the KIDS OF THE CASTLE have chosen from the million they hear every day?? See, another question--they told you so! And here they are--the questions, not the kids...But if you want them, and you'd like to HOMESCHOOL them, just e-mail me at.....naw, I LOVE my kids...if I didn't, WHY would I ask them SO MANY QUESTIONS???
(a) take a shower
(b) brush your teeth (c) take a shower (d) change your underwear
6. What's that growing under your bed--and while we're talking about growing, how do you expect to grow just living on CokeĻ and pepperoni pizza??
5. Where do you think you're going to wearing THAT? Do you know how *I* dressed when *I* was your age?
4. Did you do your homework or do you expect me to believe the space guys took it into outer space?
3. How many times have I told you not to say that? If I ever talked to MY parents.... (Complete sentence and get another star for the I Am Special chart).
2. Whatever made you think that ____ (insert age here) is too old to spank? As long as you live under MY roof,...... (another sentence to complete for a star AND a sticker on the I am Special chart.)
Who's Mama puttin' in the doghouse today?
(a) My sibling, who else?
(b) My favorite other-sex person!
(c) My not-so-favorite other-sex person!
(d) My next-of-kin authority figure!--Dad maybe?
(e) Not ME--I'm perfect!
OK--it's (e)--so now what do I do? Peggie sez, "Read 1 John 1:9. Now go find that someone from (a) to (d) who really bugs you--maybe all of them? Give that person a hug, and you both will have a WONDERFUL day!"
1. Do you know that no matter what you do, where you go, or what you become, your mom will always love you?
If you have a favorite MamaQuest you'd like to add, let me know (pbohanon@peggiesplace.com)! Here's some that have come into my mailbox:
"I have told you a thousand and one times not to exaggerate!"
"Shut that door--do you think you live in a barn?
"What did I say?"
"What do you think you're doing?
"Wait tell your father gets home."
"Did you HEAR ME!
"Do you want me to wipe that smile off your face?"
"You'd forget your head if it wasn't attached to your body."
"This place is a pig stye and I just cleaned it up."
"How many times do I have to TELL you!"
