Birth and The Middle Wife A teacher of some fifteen years with two kids herself absolutely swears that this is by far the funniest and best birth or Middle Wife story ever. It comes from something rather hilarious that she witnessed in her own second grade classroom a few years back. Remembering when she was a kid how she loved show-and-tell time, she began having a couple of sessions with her own students.

No wonder they were called The Good Old Days!! When you were growing up, how many times did you hear your parents (if you are a baby boomer … or older!!) utter those immortal words ‘The Good Old Days!!

What Is Butt Dust?? Here is another of those posts that brighten anyone's day and spread huge smiles across their faces.  Since absolutely time indefinite kids have made us roar with laughter at some of the  interesting though funny things they say as well as some of the hilarious questions they manage to ask their parents.   Most times, as parents we have no trouble whatsoever finding and giving the appropriate answers. But .... There are those times when they come out with the most outrageously funny and quirky questions ever -  which by the way, have notably been fashioned directly fr...

Weirdest Stuff Found in Kids and  Pets Stomachs Funny thing about kids and dogs - most of them will attempt to eat most things that are 'not on their plates - or in their bowls'! I recall my mother recounting to others the many horror stories about her kids and the family dogs ... 'if you think your kids/dogs did something real stupid, just wait til I tell you what mine did.'
