Don't Wake The Kids

Number One Secret of SuperMoms

Red Meat High

February4

I feel like being lazy. I’m stuffed. Jumpshot had a basketball game, so he and James are there. Diva had her first Art class, so it’s just her, Manchild, and me.

I stopped on the way home and picked up Burger King. Yes, I actually had a hamburger! I usually don’t eat red meat, but I didn’t want to cook for myself, and the kids wanted BK, and I don’t like the BK Chargrilled Chicken. So a Whopper Jr. it was.

Whopper Jr.’s always remind me of my high school band days. It seemed every road trip included a trip to BK. My friend Rachael introduced me to the straw wishing game. For a long time, I always got two straws, one for my drink and one to wish on.

What? You’ve never heard of the game? You place an unwrapped straw between the palms of your hands and make a wish. Then you bring your hands together, bending the straw. If you bend the straw perfectly in half, your wish will come true. Our wishes always involved getting our crushes to notice us. They did, so maybe the straw game works. ;)

Anyway, I’m reeling from my red meat high and don’t feel like moving off this couch. It’s nice and warm. I think I’ll put on another episode of Team Umizoomi so I can be lazy a little while longer.

Here’s to a lazy night!

Don’t Wake the Kids is a blog featuring Sally and sometimes James, a husband and wife team, talking about their life – the good, the bad, and the ugly.  Together, they will put their life on display, imperfections and all, with the hope that you will find it uplifting, entertaining, and amusing.

About Sally

For as long as I can remember, I wanted to be a mother. God blessed me with three wonderful children, who keep me going. My husband and I have been married for almost 12 years, and he’s my best friend.

I work full-time outside of the home and try to volunteer as much as I can at my children’s school. I love to bake and accidentally found out about cakepops, and I can’t stop making them. I love to scrapbook, when I find the time, but I’m still intimidated by 12×12 layouts. I also like to crochet, but I’ve only made scarves. I use it to pass the time while waiting at the doctor’s office or practice or for meetings to start.

I try to have it all, and I hope my blog lends support to other moms who mess up, want to pull out their hair, but who wouldn’t want to trade their lives for anything – just like me.

People ask me how do I do it all. I am always flattered by this, and my answer is always the same – I don’t sleep. I only get a lot done after everyone falls asleep. James came up with the name of our blog Don’t Wake The Kids because of my nocturnal nature.
