If You Don't Read Anything, You HAVE to At Least Read The Bold!

The Oath to not blog has been broken! I can't help it this is too funny not to share. My 2 girlfriends and I decided to venture out and take our children to Chuck E. Cheese for a day of fun.
Total Adults=3
Total Children= 4 and 1/3.
1 Girl aged 9
1 Boy aged 7
1 Boy aged 3
1 Boy 2 and 10/12
1 tiny fetus!
My friend, mother of Boys 7 and 3 just found out she is 6 weeks pregnant! Yay!

Apparently, after this bout of snowy weather and days out of school, everyone else had the same idea! The line to Chuck E Cheese was out the door and in the middle of the road! There is no way we would have made it in there. The place is bursting at the seams anyway because it is too tiny. Perhaps they should take over the Toys R Us next too. Besides, no one can afford to go there because they spend all of their money at Chuck's!

Spot #2 is the Grand Prix which also has a large arcade. This place was packed as well. There at least 4 birthday parties plus all of the suffer-ees of cabin fever. However, the layout is more spacious. Who would have thought $20 in tokens would go so far! ($20 each kid, but we all agreed next time $10 would do the job.)

Spot #3 is Maggie Moo's where mothers and children regained some energy.

Spot #4 Target. Which wasn't too bad. Except it took us 40 minutes to get out of the parking lot!! No exagerration. Disaster!! But it was worth it.

The ride home however was the best of the day by far. Cue 2 kids in carseat, 1 in middle seat, 2 adults up front.
2 adults in front-PASSENGER:23-year-old, single mother of 1. Saved 3 years. She has some experience of being "in the world."
DRIVER: 28-year-old mother of 2. Marriage since aged 19. In the ministry since 14. Was "in the world" for a while as a young adult. Knows some, but very modest. Blushes at the sound of the country song that talks about "picking off ticks after romping in the grass."
CUE 7-YEAR OLD IN BACKSEAT: "Mom!! I'm sooooooooooooo uncomfortable. I want to go home and just be in my underwearrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!
MOM: Me too, son. Me too.
7Y/O: When you're in your underwear, I can see your....................................uhm....HAIR!!!
CUE 5 SECOND THAT REALLY SEEMS LIKE 5 YEAR SILENCE..................................................................................................................................
CUE RIDICULOUSLY INSANE AMOUNT OF EMBARASSMENT LAUGHTER FROM BOTH MOTHERS!

It was great! So akward but what can ya do about it? Embrace it I guess. So we have officially crossed that line in friendship, where you're not just friends, but sisters. We're bound forever because I personally know way too much about my minister, spiritual mother, best friend, etc., that I ever care to know! LOL

We have also sworn each other to secrecy about that conversation, except I've shared it with you all in the blog world and Li--who won't tell anybody I know! lol
