Michael’s Pumpkin

Okay guys hurry up! Time to go! 

Mom… 

Not now Michael, we have to go. It is almost four o’clock and I have to make dinner. 

But mom… 

Michael, please. Just get in the car. Your sister is already strapped in, I am just waiting for you. 

Mom! 

Michael, I am not arguing with you right now. Just get in the car! Why does there always have to be an argument when we leave the park. You know, next time I will just bring your sister and get Aunt Martha to come stay with you. 

But mom! 

What? 

My pumpkin….

  1. Clever! As a once-upon-a-time mother of littles, it is easy to reach the end of your patience and be ready to call it a day. It takes our brave little angels to remind us of what’s important to them! So much sincerity in the voices of the young 🖤 Thank you for joining us again this week 🖤
