Motherhood - the good the bad and then the down right embarassing

The other day I decided to be a nice mommy and take the kids to get ice cream. We are sitting outside of Baskin Robbins enjoying the sheer goodness that is ice cream. Next to us is a mother with her three children. She is a larger woman, well that is putting it nicely, she was quite obese. She and the children get up to leave and Hudson starts chanting. Hey Mommy that is a fat mommy, hey mommy that is a fat mommy. I am trying to do the sushhh thing, which by the way never works, they never shussh. I finally grab her leg and start ticking her to get her to focus on something else. Which makes her dump her ice cream, which then leads to the onslaught of tears. Motherhood - can we ever win?

k- that's a funny story! a few weeks ago, we were walking out from target and a very large woman was walking in and ethan yells, "whoa, that's a big mommy"! i about died! you gotta love these little ones. i figure we get our turn when they are teenagers and we completely embarass them by everything we do or don't do.
