When did you know that you were turning into your mother or father?

I heard her words coming out of my mouth. It was very scary!

When my kid said "i'm bored" and i said "go clean your room if you're bored"

Can I be my granny instead she's still sane.

I hate it when I say things that sound like my mom..... but I don't think I will ever turn into her, my DH would pack up and leave if I did!

When I started using up all the leftovers and disguising them in casseroles, stews, etc and pretending to my husband that it just a new recipe I found somewhere.

When my kid asked "What's there to eat, Mom?" and I replied "Whatever you make."

When my kids ask "Can we get this?!!! Please, Mom?!" (usually Froot Loops or something sugary) and I reply "I'll think about it."
Except when my mom said it, we crumbled and gave up. When I say it, the kids cheer and high five each other.

My FIL always did that (he was the cook in their house). Except his attempts were very poorly disguised. The man could not tolerate a leftover. My husband still will not eat "stir fry". Ha.

At least I never told my kids there are children starving in africa right?

when for the umpteenth time my stepson asked me "but why..." (don't remember what it was all about but I clearly remember my response) and I heard these words come out of my mouth: "Because I said so!"
