lol, Legzz.

we had what we called "DON'T Glom on Mom" days.

in honor of Dr. Seuss's beginner book HOP on POP, from 1963.

we'd sit, and read stories, and they'd change a line or two, and giggle over their attempts at making the rhymes work:

HOP POP
We like to hop.
We like to hop
on top of Pop.


STOP
You must not
hop on Pop.


naturally became:

Glom, Mom
We like to glom
We like to glom
On top of MOM!

BE CALM !!
You must not
Glom on MOM !!

and my pre-teen daughter contributed by saying that my sons must

Have Aplomb!
Cease & Desist
That Glom on Mom!

oh, and thanks, 4boysmom!

I've had MS for (lemme think...) um, it'll be 21 years next February.

my kids came out (mostly) well-adjusted, and are all working or in college now.
