this i know...

1. Quick trips to Costco are never quick.

2. The parenting rule to never pick up an intentionally dropped toy at the grocery store is very hard to enforce.

3. Soft basketballs are never good shopping buddies for the toddler.

4. Screaming competitions between the boys are never a welcomed sound.. especially at Costco.

5. Walking backwards around Costco is highly entertaining for the Caleb.

6. Standing in the cart and enjoying the ride is fun for CJ.... especially when the cart stops quickly and your head lands on a large bag of cheese.

7. Hanging onto the cart, climbing the cart, and riding the cart while standing backwards is far more enjoyable than the sport of tree climbing to Conner.

8. Fellow shoppers love to pick up the tossed basketball, smile, laugh, and talk to CJ.

9. CJ likes attention.

10. Caleb likes attention too.

11. Big brothers who teach little brothers to disobey mom need bummer time.... even in the grocery store.

12. When living in Utah, church materials for specific lessons need to be purchased months in advance.

13. Strawberries always make me happy... even after stressful shopping trips.

14. Next week, the boys and I will visit Costco again.

15. And when the nice lady at checkout reminds me that kids grow up quickly... I will assure her that I am enjoying every moment of motherhood as much as possible.
