Lessons learned

I've been a mommy for almost 7 years now! For real! I feel older all of a sudden! Haha!

I was thinking this morning about what I've learned in those 7 years. As every mom knows, you learn new things every day...

Like how to double sheet a bed, or how to discreetly sneak a cookie without every child in the house asking for one, or how to have an entire conversation with yourself on a pretend toddler phone...

or how about that sequence you do at restaurants:
1. arrange seats with proper child placement
2. Move all knives, salt shakers, sugar packets, or anything that squirts to opposite side of table
3. Pull out a wipe & clean the table to your standards
4. Sit kids in their assigned locations & hand them crayons and/or toys to occupy them
5. Sit down & figure out what to order your children. You, of course will not know what you want until the waitress says "and you, ma'am?". Oh crap. I forgot to look at a menu!

We can all teach each other a thing or two... What things have you mommies learned over the years?
