NO MOMMA!

"No Momma" is a familiar phrase. I hear it for many different reasons ~ "No Momma, I don't want to. . ." ,, "NO, Momma (in the 'you can't make me do it' tone), "No Momma" (I actually did NOT do it), "No Momma!" (Please don't wash my hair!), or even "No thank you, Momma" (My personal favorite:)). However, today we can add a new "No Momma" to the list; one that I had to walk out of the room because I was trying so hard not to cry tears from hysterical laughter. So, like a good mother I regained my composure and promptly returned - with my camera! We have had a great day - Daddy returned yesterday from a week long trip just in time for Amma's birthday dinner, we had lunch with Nana and went out to Ft. Logan, plus she took a really good nap. I am not 100% sure where this came from, but I probably should admit I have a bit of a mellow-dramatic side. I was in the process of telling her to go upstairs so we could change her diaper. She proceeds to throw herself to the floor shouting "NO MOMMA, NO MOMMA!" I was not sure which category this fell into so I asked her "Why not?" My precious baby replied "Because I having a BREAK DOWN". OOPS! I do not swear, I am not judgemental (usually), I even try to avoid sarcasm. Unfortunately, I did not realize how horrific "mellow-drama" looks on a two year old. So here is a photo of Amazing Gracie having her one and only "break down". Yes, I realize all of you seasoned mothers are laughing my naivety, but I started this, so now I must finish it! Wish me luck ~ dropping this type of verbiage should prove more challenging than giving up caffeine while pregnant!
