i am my parents child

Shocking revelation?  Possibly not :)

I am speaking of more than the fact that I was born to them, I am speaking of what I have "gained" from them.

And I am speaking of more than my dad's blond hair, blue eyes, and German, white complexion.

So, by now, you're wondering (I hope) what exactly I AM speaking of.

Two things: diet coke and dust.

(I apologize for the spaces but the thoughts are coming in little bits tonight as I write mixed in with all the to do lists, deadlines, due dates, places to be, etc!)

Diet Coke:  I have always hated diet coke!  My dad, however, loves diet coke.  Now whether I really obtained this from my dad or not is not really the point (okay, it really is the point, but this just has a funny story I want to share.)  Imagine, you wake up on Monday, go to work, and your assignment for the day is to care for two super sweet toddlers.  Yay!  Let me tell you something about toddlers, or at least these two toddlers.  As soon as they are awake, they are ready to get a move on with life.  It really doesn't matter that you only slept two hours last night and you would much rather have some nice quiet cuddle time until you wake up and ready to play.  So, you might be wondering what this has to do with diet coke.  Well, this is my job on Monday and I absolutely love it!  Makes for an awesome start to my week.  However, I am not at all a morning person, even at 9, I'm not awake yet, so I need caffeine.  Well this wonderful person that I work for, like my father, keeps diet coke on hand and I finally gave in to the fact that I need caffeine and started drinking a can of diet coke on Mondays and now I'm hooked!  I even got diet coke at happy hour the other day!  I am my father's child :)

Dust- our new house was very, very, VERY dusty when we moved Eric in.  I had to fix this right away.  I am completely OCD when it comes to certain things being dirty and dusty fans and such are at the top of the list! This OCDness I acquired from my mother (and of course swore I would never do when I had my own house hahaha)

This may seem silly, but its true :)  I am my parent's child

Thx 4 readin~

  1. LOL!!!!! The youngest of those two toddlers is her mother's child and an avid diet coke addict! She sees a red straw and she nearly convulses until you let her have the Sonic cup. If it is empty the convulsing recommences!!! :)
