Mammas the Queen

It has been a whole week. Five actual days. And Thing One actually still LOVES school.

PRAISE THE LORD AND LADY!

On Monday she played with old friends, hammered in some nails and worked with the pink tower. And on Tuesday she did, "The same thing." On Wednesday she did,
"The same thing." On Thursday she did , "The same thing."
On Friday she did something different. It's about time. Sheesh.

Thing One "The yellow things are monsters. And the red thing is you Mom and you are feeding the monsters. And the blue one is Dad."

Me "Am I feeding Dad to the Monsters?"

Thing One "No. But the yellow monster with the red top is nice."

Lets play shrink for a bit. Shall we? OK then. Looking at this picture you can tell that there is a significant difference in the size of the persons painted here. Knowing that bigger is always portrayed as a dominant figure over anything smaller than it. We can come to the conclusion that my children view ME as being the dominant one in the family.

Head of the household.
The one who wears the pants in the family.
The decision maker.
The Queen of the castle.

It's nice to have ones ego stroked every now and again.
