Have You Ever...

-been irritated by a mess left by a child on your kitchen table, only to remember the tiny little scraps of paper and tape were made by none other than yourself?

-stuck your foot in your mouth?

-had a dream that you were on a date, then as the date went on, began to remember that you had been married to someone else for years and have children?

-caught your child doing something good?

-eaten most of the dozen chocolate chip cookies you baked "for the kids"?

-fallen off a runaway horse?

-ridden an elephant?

-played Yahtzee?

-been the butt of a joke?

-had a bat (the live kind) flying around your bedroom in the dark?

-been so excited for Christmas to come that you could hardly sleep?

-been so at odds with a child that you wondered how you could possibly have been meant to be this child's mother (but know that you were meant to be at the same time)?

-prayed to remember a special moment in your life forever?

-had a really bad hair day?

I have.  Some more recently than others.

  2. Thanks for the opportunity to reminisce. Some memories are funnier in hindsight. :)

  4. Aside from the bat (THANK GOODNESS!) I think I hit just about all of those. Weird. Well except the horse might not have been running and I might just have fallen off (on top of my sister) and just because I was only 4 it SEEMS like it might have been running away.

  6. I wish I could say I've ridden an elephant! :)

    I'm glad I've never had a bat flying around in my bedroom - night OR day!

    YES to the rest!

  7. I've been thinking of this awhile now. We need a more detailed story on the bat. *shudder*
