I am the mom of 3 of the cutest kids(no bias of course!). I live with my husband and kids in Logan, Utah. In addition to loving being a mom, I enjoy reading, exploring new places with my kids, and as of late pilates!

Getting cute questions from my children are some of my favorite "Mom" moments.

My Daughter's Question

         So there I was—8 months pregnant, home making dinner, and my 5 year old daughter asks me, “Mom, do you ever wish you were a daddy so you wouldn’t have to make us dinner?”  I must have looked pretty tired, so to that question I immediately tried to perk up, and I responded, “No way, I mean think how great it is I get to have babies in my tummy!  Daddies can’t do that.”  Without missing a beat my daughter responded, “But mom it doesn’t sound so great to have a baby in your tummy, I mean every time you bend over or move you make these weird noises like ‘ugh’ and ‘agh’.”  All I could say to that was that mommies still love having babies in their tummies even though sometimes they make funny noises while they bend over and move.  And then I just got a good laugh that, yes, our kids watch us a lot more than we think they do!  Getting cute questions like that from my kids is one of the best “Mom” moments!
