In all the years I have been a mother, there are a few things about my kids I have never figured out. Things every mother is aware of, that every kid does or doesn't do at some time or another. Myers children you are welcome to provide the reason/answer at any time.
1) What is so fascinating about riding in the front seat?
2) Why must the TV always be on?
3) Is it a childhood requirement that you constantly run in and out?
4) Is flushing the toilet really that hard?
5) The same goes for lights, it's just a switch. It can't be that hard to flip it off.
6) Skid marks in the undies. WHY???
7) Are chicken nuggets really that good? Do you REALLY want them 5 nights out of 7?
8) Why does the bar of soap and the shampoo last so long? You do use them, right??
9) Why do you start screaming and fighting the minute I get on the phone?
10) Is it necessary to get a horrible case of the farts the minute we get into a closed car? (Jon why do you feel the need to lock the windows in said closed car?)
11) Is our bed really that comfortable?
12) Do you think you could manage to pick up your dirty clothes at least once? Try reusing your towel once, it's not so bad.
13) Do your socks, shoes, hair rubber bands, and jewelry fly off of your body and mess up the house? Or do you strategically place them that way?
14) Why do you conveniently forget you have homework until 5 minutes before bed?
15) Or a huge project that requires a trip to the craft or hardware store the night before it's due?
16) Do you really need to argue with your brother or sister at the top of your lungs in front of the neighbors in the front yard?
17) Why do you ask if your friend can spend the night in front of them so I can't throw a fit?
18) Do you think you can manage to get the stomach flu at any time other than in the car, a restaurant, or the middle of the night?
19) Why do you have to touch every thing we pass in the store?
20) Did you really think I was gonna buy every toy advertised during one 30 minute episode of Spongebob?
**bonus question** Why do the above things irritate the crap out of me yet I wouldn't have it any other way? Because I'm a mom and it's my job.

Icannot believe you talked about farts on your blog. You do not know who moght read this. You seem to get a kick out of being a Mom, nd Iam glad. Love Mom
Ahhh, the front seat. Many a handful of hair has been pulled out of mine and Amy's hair fighting over it.
#16 and #1 go hand in hand, but no hair pulling yet!
That is hilarious - and I bet it didnt take you long to come up with that list.
