Dear Son #1, #2, & #3,
Spring is here finally and we are all happier for it. Especially Mommy because Robert Munsch was not lying in Thomas’ Snowsuit, every mom hates snowsuit season, the struggle is real.
This winter I had goals:
- Get outside more and just embrace the snow and frigid temps – Nailed it.
- Try to keep nasty bugs like, the flu, gastro, super gastro, croup, Bronchitis, sinus infections and strep throat out of the house – Failed it.
- Keep the mudroom reasonably organized – LOL.
Either way, now that spring is here, I think, it is time to address the legit situation that has come upon us with mitts. Last week I cleaned out the mudroom, again, and laid out all the mitts that had found themselves single over the cold months. I don’t know how this happens but who does really? Sometimes things just don’t work out. Talk to the socks I guess. But boys I really need to know, where did all the mitts go?
I’ve gone through the lost and found at the school and the only thing I feel I came out with was something that was small, itchy and very fertile – hands were washed immediately. I’ve rooted through school bags and don’t want to tell you what I’ve found in those nasty vessels, but it wasn’t mitts. I’ve scoured vehicles but amongst the cold, hard French fries and bent Pokemon cards, no mitts.
By now you’re probably wondering what the point of this post is, and there is no point, other than to throw out the question to you and others, where did the mitts go? And what do I do with the those who remain? Do I keep them in hopes that one day their partner will return to them or do I send them out into the world (the dumpster) to find a life more fulfilling than the one they are currently living?
And next winter, do I make you buy your own mitts? Maybe they won’t find themselves alone so much if it’s coming out of your allowance…
Happy Spring boys!
Love Mommy,
XOX
