Seven Wonders of the World


If someone asked me to list the Seven Wonders of the World, I don't think I could do it. I know The Great Pyramid is one . . . but after that . . .?

Well, the other day, I was in the middle of my Thursday Taxi Service. On Tuesdays, I start driving the kids to their various activities at 3:15 p.m. and don't get done until 8:30 p.m. Just when I was starting to feel a bit frazzled, Ian, who was sitting beside me in the front passenger seat asked, "Mom, do you know what one of the Seven Wonders of the World should be?"

I think I probably responded, "What, Ian?!" through gritted teeth.

He answered very sweetly, "Moms."

OK. Being a mom. Totally worth it!

That is the sweetest thing I've ever heard Ian! Makes motherhood all worth it. V, I'm so sorry to hear about your food allergies. What can you eat?

Hi, Mindy! I can have any sorts of fruits and vegetables (except for orange juice), gluten free oatmeal, and any sort of meats. Not my normal diet for sure!! It will be interesting to see if I can do it!

Did Ian ask you to stop and get him a turkey leg once he buttered you up?

Pat, Ian got 2 turkey legs and a case of vienna sausages! He knows the way to his mother's heart!
