First Things Said



6:34am, Owen: "Mom. Mom. Mom! Make me a paper airplane." 

I've always thought I should record the first things my kids say to me in the morning. This was today's. Wouldn't it make the best memory book?  I'm going to look into it . . . and then never do it. 

What was the first thing someone said to you this morning? I think it helps to shape the story of the day.

  1. "whassa matter?" because all week I've been oversleeping and my first words have been "oh sh*t!" Definitely shapes the day.

  3. today is the last day of work for both my husband and i before we embark on an epic adventure through asia. so the first words spoken were "last day of work!". then a very sleepy high-five!
    that paper airplane looks classic!

  4. "I'm going to look into it...and then never do it". Soooo funny. That is exactly how my mommy life goes. I pin all these great ideas for kids, sometimes even get the "stuff" to do them, and then I never do.

  5. That is hilarious, they really are very funny creatures first thing in the morning. I think I'm gonna look into it and then never do it too!

  6. Let me see -
    6:40 - Benji - MY BLANKETS ARE TANGLED! HALPHALP HAAAALLP!!!! (He's dramatic that one..)
    6:45 - Claire - Mom. Why is it early? Is it day time? Do I have to go to school? I have a belly ache, and I will miss puppy _so much_ (She's 5 and equally prone to dramatics)

    2. Well, it wasn't the best day - that bellyache turned out to be strep. Bah!

  7. Cute idea! I don't remember today's first words, but yesterday's were adorable. My 3-year-old daughter woke up just after my shower, so I still had my bathrobe on. When she saw me getting ready for work, she says in a sleepy and whiney voice "No, go put your jammas on!" Poor thing, she just wants the weekend (as do I).

  8. "Hi babe!" The first words I hear almost every morning from my sleepy boyfriend beside me.

  12. I'm still in school and don't have kids, but the first thing someone said directly to me is "I don't want to be a chauffer." I think it sums up the day nicely.

  15. "Baaaakkk, Baaaaakkk, Baaaakkkkkkk" from my 4 chickens in the coop outside my bedroom window! Horrible design flaw building it there of all places! :)

  16. what a lovely idea... I totally agree, and I guess it shapes the continuity of life and the days... Like they didn't went to sleep at all :-DDDD it's really funny! My kid is only 18 months so he usualy says: "Mom, dad, mom, dad..."
