Desperate Working Mommas

Your one-stop site for fanatical television snarking, questionable political analysis, occasional attempts to address the parenting issues facing working mothers, and halfhearted promises to stop obsessing about the entertainment industry, already! Oh, not to mention the random bitching and moaning. There's always that.

Phone conversation with a recently front-toothless six-year-old:

Momma! I just lost my front tooth!... Hannah said it would hurt for a second, but it didn't... it was a little scary, you know, because it made a little bit of a crunchy sound when Daddy pulled it?.... No, I didn't cry!... Oh, hey! Now I have a hissy sound when I talk! Lissssssten! Sssss! Sssssssee, Momma?... and now I can drink sssstuff just closing my mouth and putting it through my missssssing tooth... Momma! Now I'm going to get a sticker on my "I lost my first front tooth" chart at school!... Hey, Momma, did you know teeth are stronger than bones? Daddy told me... And I also know that the sun is the biggest thing in the world. In the universe! It's bigger than us! And the earth is as small as a pencil dot... eraser. Small as a pencil eraser, huh Mom?! Huh!... Oh! Guess what?! I'm taking my tooth for Show-and-Tell today!... Um.... uh.... would you like to talk to Dad now to see how he's doing this morning?... No?... Okay, bye Momma! Have a nice day at work!

Charlotte in Pa commented:: You could totally make money off that kid. I'd pay to talk to her on the phone when I was having a bad day...; » 1/26/2006 1:36 PM
Amy commented:: I think you should write out that conversation on a 5X7 piece of paper and then get a nice frame and frame it. And put it on your wall and read it once in a while. It's like a verbal picture of that awesome kid.; » 1/27/2006 9:51 AM
