Motherhood means ... No. 21

A slightly cooler 19°C at 8:30am. Yesterday's azure skies have been replaced by hazy clouds. A sprinkling of rain on the way, perhaps.


Motherhood means ...

always making sure, when you secretly raid the biscuits, the chocolates, the sweeties or the ice lollipops, that what remains is divisible exactly by the number of children in the house...

That's probably the most important rule too! (Right after 'Don't kill your sibling' and 'Try to get it in the loo, not the floor...' ;-))

Karin said...

Never gave that much thought - until now! Good one!

I guess you'd call it Mama Mathematics, not Restaurant Mathematics...

Dear Douglas Adams. Gone but not forgotten. Even when you're snaffling the kids' chocolate!

Nancy/BLissed-Out Grandma said...

Bossy Betty said...
