Ten things stay at home moms say in the summer

***

1. Go mow the lawn.

2. Turn it down.

3. As soon as your father gets home.

4. We can make Kool-Aid instead.

5. No.

6. Go play in the sprinkler.

7. Yes.

8. Well missy, I waited nine months for you.

9. I don't care who else is going.

10. Complaining about it won't make you feel any cooler.
