Watch your mouth Mommy

This past Sunday as we were driving to church we were in the traffic circle (which means in NY that I had the right of way) when a Mercedes pulls in front of me completely ignoring the yield sign and never even looking to see if another car was coming. Needless to say I missed hitting him by inches and was not happy about it.
This morning we as well missed being hit by someone driving like a bat out of hell in a Hummer and passing cars in a no passing zone and when I said what an idiot he was my daughter decided to remember what happened on Sunday:

E: We like that car with the wheel when we were going to Sunday School(a RAV4 with the spare on the back that wound up in front of us after the Mercedes guy turned)
M: Yes we liked that car with the wheel
E: But not the black car....
M: (thinking she'd remember that I said something about the whole not yielding part) and why didn't we like the black car Em?
E: Cause he's a jackass.

Mommy learn to watch your mouth and remember that your children are sponges.

You reap what you sow

As Daddy and I are laughing hysterically at E sucking in and pushing out her tummy:

E: Stop laughing at me! Stop laughing freakin' idiots!!!!

And while it shouldn't have this just made us laugh harder.

Lucky I love her

While getting dressed in the living room since that is where the basket full of folded clothes still sit:

E: Mommy! You folded these all by yourself? You didn't even need my help?
M: Yes I did honey
E: (bending down and throwing her arms around my shoulders) I'm so proud of you!! I knew you could do it!!
