Just got home from being a parent helper in my daughter's class this morning. I always feel like I'm just one of the other kids when I go to these things. There were three moms there. Me and these two other no-joke moms. They are all business and all cow. They even had to scold me at one point for almost forgetting to wash my hands before setting up the treats the the kids. How humiliating. So when I said I had all parts/animals in me, I know I am sorely lacking in that area. Might need some work.
LOL- That is so much like something that would have happened to me. I always thought of those kinds of moms as being more lioness, as in "I was a corporate shark lawyer but now I am home with the kids for a few 'quality' years and d*mn straight this PTO is going to set a fund-raising record if I'm in charge." or "I'm just calling to double-check that if you are serving anything with sugar in it at the birthday party you will provide Ashley with a vegetable only alternative." I was always a pretty monkey-modified cow as in "Let's make homemade purple donuts and then you kids can dig in the mud and bend all the spoons."
