I've shared some of these in the past.
Some of them are new.
Some of them were declared for the first time yesterday.
Parenting is full of amendments.
These are the rules:
Do not eat gum you found on the sidewalk.
If you drop your gum in a movie theater, do not pick it up and put it in your mouth.
Do not put your feet in your baby brother's mouth.
Do not put your toes in your baby sister's mouth.
I don't care if she likes it.
Do not lick the tile on the back porch table.
Do not lick the window screen.
Do not lick the car windows.
Do not wash your toys in the potty.
Do not slurp water from the bathtub stopper.
Do not dance with pencils.
Do not dance with peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
Do not jump on the top bunk.
Do not stuff finger puppets into your mouth to see how many you can fit.
Especially on a full stomach.
Especially if your stomach is full of ice cream.
These are just some of the actual rules, stated out loud at some point in our household.
Happy Mother's Day
