Those are the words that one of my friends (who does not yet have children) said to me yesterday as we were preparing to go to see "Blades of Glory". Here is why; I was shoving a pair of socks into my jacket pocket in case my feet got cold in the theatre. Gone are the days of smuggled candy or beer, I was just trying to keep my toes warm. Because once my toes are cold, then so is the rest of my body. It's similar but not yet at the point of my own mom who would make us put on a sweater or jacket each time SHE was cold!
I haven't decided if it is an insult, I mean I'm not at the "Kleenex in the pocket" stage of momhood yet, but in some ways I am relishing it as a compliment. Think about ALL the great things your mom or you do for your kids each day? See, that's a compliment.

Crap, I'm already at the Kleenex in the pocket stage of motherhood. What's next, the "lick your dripping ice cream cone" level? I'm so not ready to go there! ~gag~
Rebecca,
You have about 8 more years of mom practice on me. I'm sure I'll do the Kleenex thing soon. I think you're not there yet. Oh yes, I have done the ice cream thing, just can't bear to waste it!
