WTF Wednesday: The Friday Edition.
Dear Finnegan,
What part of this pee outside thing do you not understand? Yes, I know. The carpet in this house is hideous and probably older than Momma, but really dude, I hate cleaning up your urine about as much as I hate punishing you for accidents. We'll go over it again. Ask questions this time.
Thanks,
Your momma
Dear Dave,
I am and always will be three years older than you, and therefore three years beyond your time line for wanting offspring. I'm not saying tomorrow, I'm not even saying this year, but before I'm thirty would be nice.
Thanks,
Your cougar wife
Dear Fetus H*,
Please stuck around this time. Now that I've seen photographic evidence of your flippery little platypus-ness, I'm pretty effing attached. I'd REALLY like to spoil you s#i%less for the rest of your life, especially since Uncle Dave and I aren't in agreement on how soon we should make you a best friend/potential significant other. Consider it a personal favor I will spend a lifetime repaying. Oh, and I REALLY don't want to nurse your dad through another slice o'hell should you choose NOT to stick around. Just stay. It'll be a blast. I swear.
Love and hugs and mushy kisses,
Tante J

Big, big like the moon...

Dear Hubs,
I appreciate you moving everything into our new place. But I am so overwhelmed with the amount of boxes I need help emptying them also
. Oh and thanks for also bringing your 30 loads of laundry for me to do, please don't wear every item of clothing you own before you decide it is laundry time.
K, thanks?
love your exhausted wife
Dear job,
Please stop stressing me out so I stop taking it out on H and our son.
Sincerely,
A disgruntled employee.
Dear ovaries,
Please stop singing.
Sincerely,
A hormonal wreck
Dear Mother Nature,
It is 63 degrees today without a cloud in the sky. All the windows (that open - but that's another vent!) are open and it feels amazing. Please do not take this away from me.
Sincerely,
Just thawed out
Dear husband,
Thank you for putting up with my stressed out, annoying self the last couple days. Thank you for planning a surprise weekend getaway. I cannot wait to have some time to relax with you on our own schedule.
Love,
Your grateful wife

I'll join in a bit late!..
Dear gummy bear,
stop being a grumpy bear. you're making momma feel sick and tired. While I love you very much, I'd like to make it through work without feeling sick. I'm so happy I got to hear your little heartbeat and see you wiggle around!
Love,
your anticipating mommy
Dear house,
Is there any way that you can clean yourself? I'd absolutely love it! I helped you by getting all of the laundry done, now you could at least finish the dishes and sweep/mop the floors after putting all of our stuff away.
Thanks!
Exhausted and out of breath inhabitant
Dear kitty,
I love you and I understand you're jealous that you won't be the baby anymore, but that doesn't mean you can continue to be a brat. I love you though.
Your cuddle butt
Dear (ex) roommate?
Since you decided to elope on New Year's, I think it's time you get your stuff out of the house like ASAP so I can get started on the nursery and getting our house spick and span. I'd appreciate it. You chose to elope... now you can either continue to pay rent or get a storage space. Sorry, I'm still bitter about your choices... and I'm secretly kind of bitter about still being a bridesmaid in April for you..
