Here lies Diaper Diva.......
If you were to ask my kids what my headstone might say about how I lived my life and what I believed they might just repeat so many of the words constantly leaving my mouth every day.
Such as:
"Own your own choices!"
"Listen carefully, please listen?"
"Kindness begins with who?"
"A sincere apology is never wasted."
"The church is true!"
" Just be the best you that you can be."
" Nobody's perfect."
" I love you, no matter what and always."
" Reading makes you smarter, take me for example...." (they love this one)
" The savior is watching, make him proud."
" If nobodys watching, you still need to choose the right."
" Let's make our prayers meaningful."
" That was sneaky, I am not a fan of sneaky, he is a bad guy."
" I love you for you!"
" Honesty is always the best policy, because one consequence is way better than two!"
" Take responsibility for your own choices. If it were something fabulous you accomplished you would not give the credit to some one else, would you?"
"Be your own man."
" Love fixes lots of things."
I would hope that these are the ones they will remember and apply. Chances are more than likely my headstone will read.
"Please no more teasing, this Mommy can't take another minute if it."
"Go to your room until you find your smile. No, really GO TO YOUR ROOM!"
" That's a one, if I get to three you will be in time out, two, three......"
" How many times do I have to tell you no full drinks of water before dinner. I worked too hard for you to tell me you are full after two bites."
" That's fine, you don't like what we are eating, don't eat it, but remember the kitchen is closed until... so you are going to be HUUUUNNNGRY!"
" Consequences never spell fun, bummer!"
" I am sure you are not talking to me that way, try again..."
" I would love to help you, but with out a please and thank you, I just can't"
" My ears are broken. I can't understand whining."
" Five minutes, I just need five minutes!"
"At my age I should be able to shower and pee alone, please leave."
What will yours say?

I often say "Like it or Lump it."
These made me laugh! Only because I can picture you with your passel of kids trying to handle it all, and doing such a magnificent job!
Mine would likely say:
"Ding dong the witch is dead!"
Baahahahahahaha
Mine might not be readable. Just a jumbled mix of word and sound. I went to a Foster Parent Appreciation Dinner for Rise and your company "Accidentally Creative Photography" was on the list of Special Thanks! Very cool! Have you heard Vic is coming in town and we're having a get together while he's here.
I love your lists! I'm not sure what my kids would say- I hope something good!
Love them all & if I could remember them I would steal some:)
I love all your sayings and I can just hear them coming out of your mouth.
Mine would probably say, "Knock it off!" and "Did you brush, did you flush?"
