Sam the Man!

Posted on 08 April 2008 by MommyKnows

Sam the Man!

Sam Alpine Air

I took this photo of Sam on Saturday, in Canmore along the Bow River. While Mr. MK and Lizzy skied Sam, Georgia and I spent the day throwing rocks, climbing rocks, playing in the park and I managed to sneak in a wee bit of shopping (well window shopping).

Sam is getting a hair cut tonight. The major topic of discussion around the dinner table is—> ‘really short or just a trim?’. Recently a friend of mine, has repeatedly told me, “he could be a girl, that hair … those eyes” or “imagine him with pigtails, he’d be a really pretty girl“. It is really starting to BUG me! Piss off already. The same friend has a girl who is often mistaken for a boy, surely she knows it doesn’t make anyone feel good when you say these kinds of things?

Sam likes the hair (except, when it is being brushed) and says he likes it long. He also doesn’t seem overly concerned to have it cut. I love it! If I could order hair, I would order his. The color is great, it’s thick, it curls, it’s a crime it’s on a boy’s head.

Hmmm … what to do?

Results here tomorrow!

You see that Alpine Breeze blowing through Sam’s hair? You to can have this experience (*wink*) ... ***

Haiku (Refresh My Memory).

Posted on 26 March 2008 by MommyKnows

Homework from OMSH – write a Haiku.

Parenting is tough
Parent teacher interviews
Tell me some good news

One works so darn hard
Two is not as diligent
Nature of the beast

Just do your best work
You really need to bother
Listen to Mother

I forgot what a Haiku was!

5 syllables
7 syllables
5 syllables

A poet I am not! I think you’re supposed to write about nature. Hmmm, I hope my ‘wild’ children count.

We had parent-teacher interviews this evening. I’m not sure when it happened, but I feel like a real mom! For years I felt like I was ‘faking’ it! Somewhere, somehow … adulthood snuck up and bit me on the ASS when I wasn’t looking (of course I wasn’t looking … who’d let anything bite their ass if they were looking? Ahh, don’t answer that!).
