Dinosaurs Love Their Mommy

Dino Love

Sometimes I feel I could be a better mom.  A better mom, wife, friend, daughter–you name it.  And then I will walk into the toyroom and hear Nicholas talking to his dinosaurs while he positions them just so.  “Is that your mommy, T-Rex?  Is that your mommy, Spinosaurus? Do dinosaurs like their mommy?  Yes?  Okay.”

And then I think that, sometimes, maybe I am doing something right, too.

    @roni I know! It was the “baby” dinosaurs hugging their mommies that killed me.

  7. Ashley says:

    Yep, it makes all the doubts fade for at least a little while. Our dinos have to have a “family.” A Mama, a Daddy and a baby. It’s sooo cute.

    Just when I think I’ve quieted the ticking of my biological clock down to a dull roar you go and post something sweet like this!

    Awww how sweet. My three year old has been talking a lot to her toys, usually these days it’s about “baby brother.” It is fun to catch a glimpse of what’s on their minds.

  12. Toi says:

    Stories like this send my biological clock into double time. That is so freakin’ cute!

    This is the best! I want to share this one with some other mommies…
    (We’re fans of your family’s dinosaurs, btw.)

Hi! I’m Jules.

I used to be an attorney, but it made me grumpy. Now I write about life, sweet and savory, as a wife and mother to two small boys. My knowledge of dinosaurs knows no bounds.

You can read more, including the meaning behind the name Pancakes and French Fries here. And, yes, I really am phenomenally indecisive.
