This morning I loaded up my two boys into the double running stroller, locked the front wheel put on Pandora and took all three of us for a run.  Yes, that’s 60 pounds of kids, plus the double stroller.  I was determined.  With the two boys protesting at first, I played Pandora from my phone.   With songs like Old MacDonald and the ABC’s, the playlist got me thinking about little daily realities that make life as a mommy funny to say the least.

So, here ya go.  You know you’re a mommy when:

• Your running playlist includes a song like Old MacDonald
• Dinosaur bites and quesadillas become health food
• You open endless packages of treats to survive grocery shopping
• You justify not showering, because you don’t have the time.  After all doesn’t naturally shiny hair rock?
• Dance parties include the Hokey Pokey
• A night out is an event
• You’ll dress in superhero costumes to make your little one happy

And last but not least, you wouldn’t change any of the above for the world.
