Triplet Mom Survivor

Kids had their first day of pre-K yesterday. They are in seperate classes.

Me: did you miss your sibblings3?
Boy: I. DID. NOT!

(For the record, they are very close; why the seperate classes)

Girl 2: Girl 1 says I don't have bones, but I DO have bones!

I think the point is a lot can happen in 3 minutes that can change everything.

Girl 1: I'm going to be the smallest because i don't eat my vegetables!

That's not really a good thing, chica.

Kids are playing hide and seek
Neighbor: go hide! I can see you!
Boy: You can't see me, I'm in cogno mode! (He meant incognito)

I cried while watching this. 😔

Girl 1: Mommy! Eat your doughnut before it melts!

It's a bagel. 🤷‍♀️

Spread the love and acceptance #pridemonth

I'm a chainmailler (American... sorry). Recently bought a ton of rings from a Canadian company to show my support. Going to make a large inclusive pride flag (even though I'm just an ally). No offense to the American chainmaille companies, who didn't ask for this drama.

At the playground.
Boy: cheese for sale!
Girl 1: I want 3 cheese.
Boy: no, you can only have 1.
Girl: but... STEAL STEAL STEAL! *runs away*
Me: she just stole from you!
Boy: eh.
Less than a minute later, she's selling the pretend cheese she stole from her brother right behind him.

I thought it went down ●♡☆%. Was my math off?

Girl 1: I'm selling boring kings!
Me: What is that?
Girl 1: *proceeds to give answer that makes no sense*
Me: That makes no sense.
Girl 1: It makes sense to me.
Me: Fair enough.

Still no clue what a 'boring king' is in her mind.

Girl 2: i missed you!
Boy: i missed you, too!
*proceeds to hug multiple times*

The boy had been gone for about an hour with daddy on a one-on-one grocery shopping trip. They've been apart longer than that other times!

Girl 1 was adamant that she didn't want a hug.

Me: if you poop im your underwear, you will lose your tablet.
Girl 1: ok. I won't cry when I lose my tablet.
Oh, this one is going to give us a run for our money! 🙄

I live in an area where most farmers are small/hobby farms, not corporations. Many of these farmers did not vote for 45/47. Heck, when driving in WV, a very red state, I saw lots of farms with Harris signs. Your view on farmers all depends on where you live. Here, we need USDA/NRCS programs.

Girl 2: Mommy, look! Apple juice! *points to bottles from the window of an ABC store* Can we go inside?
Spoiler: we did not go inside. 😅

Of the 32% who voted for him, many disliked him but voted because they're anti-abortion, pro-gun rights, 'any republican is better than a democrat' etc. Many regretted their vote. Rest are die-hard fans, which is a small amount overall. Gives me some hope.

Don't want to use this account for politics, but felt these facts are important.
In the 2024 presidential election:
36% of registered voters didn't vote
32% voted for 45/47
31% voted for Harris
1% voted for a third party/other.

Got my brownie batter donuts! My absolute favorite! 🤤

Messy chippies = doritos

Girl 1: my tummy is rumbling.
Grandparents: Want more cheerios?
Girl 1: No, it is rumbling for messy chippies.

Nice try girl! 😅

Boy: *randomly* Girls squirt everywhere. Boys don't. Boys are better.

The boy was telling me all about his different super powers. One of them is text messages. He explained it to me, but I just didn't get it (keep in mind he's 4).

There was one day the triplets were making too many demands all at once. I could feel my sanity slipping, so I asked if they wanted to play The Quiet Game. We've played it many times since; every time it's been their request.

Conversation with the kids waking up one morning
Girl 2: Mommy, my finger still hurts.
Boy: I know what you mean. I lost my super powers to the bad guys again. *proceeds with story*

Kid, I don't think that's quite the same as a sore finger! 😅
