Inspired by The Queen herveryownself Jill Conner Browne, who has been having some quite heelarious blog contests, lately,(which I have YET to win) and one of my very bestest friends Amy, who posted as her Facebook status, “Real moms don’t shower,” I introduce to you: “Real moms…”
All YOU have to do is fill in the blank, it can be funny or sweet.
ex. Real moms can’t remember when they shaved their legs.
Real moms understand baby lotion commercials are a ploy to trick you into having kids so you’ll buy their stupid lotion.
Got it? Good.
Each comment will enter you for a chance to win a fabulous prize that I’m going to pick out from one of my favorite stores here in town called Mississippi Gift, they carry local pottery, yummy treats and all kinds of fun stuff. Who knows what you could end up with? Contest ends Friday, July 2nd!
Each comment is an entry so if you have more than one post them separately. Entertain me, ladies!!!

Real moms shrug when someone asks them what that spot is on their shirt. (Because it is most likely spit up, yogurt, peas….)
Kimberly says
Real moms save the extra trip to the trash can and just eat the piece of cracker or leftover grape they find on the living room floor.
Liza Wiemer says
Real mom resist the urge to say yes after saying no & think first before saying no, when it could have been a yes in the first place.
Robin says
Ooo good one, Liza!!!
Jennifer says
I like Kimberly's. Because I do that probably a little too often. I can't think of anything witty, so I'll just say what happened to me a thousand times in the grocery store today. Real moms roll their eyes when their kid throws a paci on the floor and a stranger picks it up and says "oh, want me to go wash this off for you?" No you idiot, I want you to stick it back in my kid's mouth so he stops making that noise.
Tonya Pendley says

The kitchen table one kills me! I lean more to the dust buster, but still, same thing. Ha!

Allyson says
Real moms don't flinch to use the inside bottom of their own shirt to wipe their kids nose when a spontaneous sneeze happens without a tissue around. I know … Gross.

Real Moms drain the dinner vegetables and use the steam for a facial. My pores are steamed more today than ever before. I call it the Beta Carotene glow.
Christy says
Real moms avoid using their children’s bathroom to avoid the yucky mess they know is there and also so they can continue to deny that it needs cleaning.
