I get it: You. like. order. I was very pleased when you were playing quietly in your room. I should have known you were on a mission when you ran from room to room then back into your room and shut the door. When you called to show me what you had done, I was eager to see.
Did you notice the surprise on my face when I looked on your bed. There all lined up in one row were the tampon applicators. In another perfectly straight row were the tampons. All the wrappers were in the tucked neatly in the trash.
See...order.
Love,
Mommy
Dear CVS,
I'll be over soon. I need to stock up on tampons and put them on a higher shelf in my house.

Dear Snow,
Are you really coming again tomorrow? This is been a real winter for us! Nearly twenty inches of snow in December (it's okay that you
I'm not sure I believe you'll be back this weekend with 12 inches or more but I'll be watching! If you do visit, I'll make sure there's plenty of hot chocolate in the house after we've played together (wine, too).
Signed,

PS. Have you heard Bug singing "Frosty the Mommy?"
Dear Work,
What a fun time it's been! We released a new book last week and another one is going to the printer tomorrow. This week has been filled with edits, corrections, cover proofs, copyright issues...all fun stuff. I can't wait for that new book smell to arrive!

Dear Everyone,
Kristen Chase of Motherhood Uncensored has agreed to sign a copy of her new book, The Mominatrix's Guide to Sex for a giveaway (don't you love signed books?!).
From amazon: Kristen proves that there is more to motherhood than diapers and timeouts. Good moms can be sexy mamas with just a little mominatrix training!
Leave a comment for a chance to win the book and I'll pick a winner on Monday, February 8.
Signed,
Mag
Visit Amanda at Family of Shorts for more letters and tell her I said hi.
Ha! That book looks hilarious. :)
ReplyDeleteWhen I read the "12 inches or more" I thought "That's was HE said!" LOL.
Oh that Bug is hilarious!!!
ReplyDeleteI so would love to have that book!!
Hopefully you were out of order and didn't need them little orderly things at the time! Ok, can't pass up a chance to win a book with that kind of title! Count me in!
ReplyDeleteDear Mag, thank you so much for keeping this next storm in your backyard rather than mine. Right about now, I'll even take the cold over more snow.
ReplyDeleteOkay I tell you what, I'll send you a jumbo super duper sized pack of tampons if you send me some snow...and wine :)
ReplyDeleteEven if I don't win the book, it's going on my to-read list. Actually, it's going straight to the top of said list!
Hahaha about the tampons! That's awesome.
ReplyDeleteAlso...I am so. done. with. winter! Grrr...c'mon flowers and green grass!
Tampons are one of Isabella's favorite "toys" haha! Thank God she can't open them yet. Your story is hilarious :)
ReplyDeleteOMG, I'm still laughing at the tampons! Being in menopause, my 3 1/2 year old won't find any of those little gems laying around. Too funny.
ReplyDeleteShe seems to be more in awe of my bras Lol!
Great book you got there, hope I'm in the draw!
The tampons lined up in a row is just hysterical!
ReplyDeleteI am curious to read that book. And what Bug did was hysterical! Please tell me you took a photo! Can you imagine how embarrassed he's going to be about that story later? Priceless.
ReplyDeleteNext time skip the tampons and get one of those diva cups (and yea keep it on a higher shelf lol)!
ReplyDeleteThat book looks hilarious!

ReplyDeleteAnd I'm cracking up about the tampons. Too bad they were all opened and disengaged so you couldn't salvage them....
Isn't the snow crazy?
ReplyDeleteMy son likes order too. I guess it's a good thing, but it gets a little out of control.
I really enjoy your letters.
