If You Give a Mom a Cookie

I got this from Camary today, along with a cookie. It says Author Unknown, so sorry I can't give proper credit.

If you give a mom a cookie,

She'll want a glass of milk to go with it.

She'll pour herself some.

Her three-year-old will spill the milk.

She'll wipe it up.

Wiping the floor, she'll find dirty socks.

She'll remember she has to do laundry.

When she puts the laundry in the washer,

She'll trip over boots and bump into the freezer.

Bumping into the freezer will remind her

She has to plan for supper.

She will get out a  pound of hamburger.

She'll look for her cookbook

(101 Things to do With a Pound of Hamburger).

The cookbook is sitting under a pile of mail.

She will see the phone bill, which is due tomorrow.

She will look for her checkbook.

The checkbook is in her purse

That is being dumped out by her two-year-old.

She'll smell something funny.

She'll change the two-year-old's diaper.

While she is changing the diaper, the phone will ring.

Her five-year-old will answer and hang up.

She'll remember she wants to phone a friend for milk and cookies.

Thinking of mild will remind her that she was going to have a glass.

And chances are...If she has a glass of milk,

Her kids will have eaten the cookie that went with it.

Happy Mother's Day!
