This past Friday, I found myself sitting in the sweltering hot gymnasium at my children’s elementary school.
There I sat with my Dad and the Drama Queen wedged in between us.
We were there to attend my son’s 5th Grade Farewell program.
As I sat there listening to the Principal’s speech as he flashed back to the year 1999, the year I became a mom, I admit, I did get a little emotional.
How did my baby go from being at his first day of Kindergarten yesterday to graduating from the 5th grade today?
Where did the time go?
June 6th 2005

How and when did my little boy go from a kid to a little man?
The time sure has flown by.
As I sat in through the program on Friday, I realized that by the time Tatertot graduates from high school, I could very well be a Grandma.
To more than one grandchild.
Tatertot will graduate in 16 years.
By that time, Zman will be 27.
The Drama Queen will be closing in on 26.
They will both be done with college and moving on with their lives.
Possibly making me a Grandma before my youngest is out of high school.
And to think, we are considering having another child in the next 2 years.
Oy vey!
Finally, I would like to say,
Congratulations to my Zman on his 5th Grade Graduation.
I am proud of you and all you have achieved.
I hope moving on to Middle School this Fall will be an easy transition for you.
I look forward to seeing you grow more everyday.
And to my dear sweet Drama Queen.
Tomorrow marks your last day of 4th grade.
This Fall you will be at the top of the school.
You will rock as a 5th grader.
I am so proud of you and the amazing amount of progress you made throughout this last year.
I can’t wait to see what the 5th grade will bring.
I love you both very much and a proud to be your mom.
Love,
Mommy

Disclosure

Hi.
I am Tatertot.
Or Monkey.
Whichever you prefer to call me.
I am 2 years old and I rule this joint.
I am the baby of the family so the way I see it, everything is about me.
All.The.Time.
I am an extremely active little man.
I enjoy playing outside, throwing my toys around the house and making huge messes for everyone else to clean up.
One of my favorite things to do is undress myself when my mom or dad puts me down for a nap or to bed for the night.
I am a nudist.
I like to let it all hang out.
And, occasionally, I like to pee on my bed or the floor.
My mom’s always telling me I’m lucky I’m so damn cute or I’d be history by now.
I think she says this just because she gets frustrated when she finds me with my wiener hanging out and discovers I have wet sheets.
I’m also a competitive food thrower.
Seriously.
I can launch food up to 50 feet.
I just enjoy watching it splat in the end.
Another thing I like is to laugh.
There are A LOT of thing that I find to be extremely funny.
Like farts and nipples and burps and stuff.
All of it makes me chuckle.
Oh, and I don’t like to express myself verbally unless I really have too.
My favorite word is Mommy.
Everyone is Mommy.
Until they ignore me.
I also say “Eewww” and “Owie” a lot too.
I think bugs are pretty cool right up there with sand, sticks and rocks.
I have tons of really cool toys but I’d rather just run wild in the backyard beating my fists on my chest.
The best part of being me is I am continuously pampered by the bigs in my world.
If I poo or pee in my diaper all I have to do is point to it and Ta-da! Next thing I know is I’m laying on my back, hands behind my head chillaxing while someone else cleans the poo and pee off my junk and bottom.
If I get dirty, the bigs give me a bath and clean me up and then I smell very nice.
See….it’s rough being me.
Sorry, have to run now, it’s time for me to get naked and run around the backyard while my mommy tries to catch me.
See ya later!
