Sounds that require immediate action on your part:
The scraping sound of a kitchen chair, pushed across the kitchen floor.
The rustling sound of candy, secretively being unwrapped.
A door that is closed ever so gently.
But above all, these words: 'Mom, I'm not doing anything!'
So if you'll excuse me!
Petesmom is a formidable woman who can solve any problem that comes her way. At least that's what my son Petes's naughty, little friends think. When they're out playing together, I can hear them crying out to me: 'Petesmom! Petesmom! PETESMOM!' followed by a complaint, a question or a request for mediation. That's a job...
The path of motherhood is filled with landmines and pitfalls. Sometimes you need an expert to help you find your way. So when experts diagnosed my eldest son John with PDD-NOS, I decided another expert was in order to offer both John ánd me some guidance. So there we were, me sitting cringing in my...
I like things clearcut. So whenever my kids exhibit all kinds of vague symptoms, I wring my hands in despair, wondering how to rule out a severe case of school sickness.

You're supposed to ask specific questions like: 'What did so and so teach you about the birds and the bees in...
'Mommy, I puked!' I heard my son Ot shout, a mixture of triumph and excitement in his voice.'Alrighty then. Will you go and clean it up?' I shouted back, and had myself another sip of tea.'Daddy is much nicer,' my seventeen year olds daughter suddenly declared in a quiet tone of voice. 'Daddy cleans up...
LOL! My Little Bit is 21 months old and I already have an ear for some of these danger sounds. He even gets a certain look on his face when he has something in his mouth that he shouldn't.

I know those sounds. Unfortunately there are sounds that are harder to interpret. They are the ones that really worry me. Or the utter silence.
