These remind me of the time my husband came home from work to sub for me because I had an appointment. Before I left I let him know to be prepared because one of the DCB had not pooped yet. I came home to find my husband with his military issue gas mask on with the boy laying there on a towel and a WHOLE thing of baby wipes had been used.

You know you are a provider when...
You you can use every last milimeter of a baby wipe. Which in turn means you can clean a poopy mess with only one or two wipes!Comment

When you can hear several kids talking to you at once even over the squealing and screaching from the others....
when your furbabies start whining as soon as they hear the high chair trays un snap after mealtimes bc they know you are going to let them out to "clean up' the stray items that hit the floor...
when you can hear a certain scream while changing a diaper and know exactly who it is and why they are probably doing it!Comment

Mine is when I know all the words to all the books on my book shelf without even looking down! I know not that funny but oh so true.
I cant tell you how many times I have cut my teenage sons sandwhich in quarters before I pack it in his lunch. You should see the looks I get from him. One day we were having spagetti and I was cutting his noodles up.

I hum. I hum almost all the time and think nothing of it. I don't realize I'm doing it most of the time, and even when I do it in public, I figure a little music never hurt anyone. I realized the other day that I was going through Walmart humming "I'm a Little Teapot".Comment

This made me laugh so hard!! This is definitely true for me!
However, I definitely can NOT eat lunch with the kids. I gag when I have to hear their smacking sounds from eating with their mouths wide open and food is falling out. (even though I tell them to chew with their mouths closed) It just grosses me out SO BAD.
I definitely need more practice in the wet wipe department too. I wear latex gloves when I change poopy diapers and even then I sometimes go a little overboard on the wipes. Then I wrap the poopy up in the gloves and still put it in a plastic bag before disposing of it. I know I'm gonna be very popular with the "green" people but I can't help it!! What's funny is I used to be so much less of a germaphobe BEFORE doing daycare. Its definitely ruined me in that way...
Anyway keep the funny stories coming- I needed a good laugh today!! :-)Comment

When during an conversation with an adult, something they said gives you the urge to break out into a children's song. Or everything you do around the house requires a made-up song! My husband is annoyed by it...my kids are entertained by it!

.....when you give up an anticipated dinner date reservation for drive through/picnic because you were seated next to a family with 4 young, badly behaving kids.
I NEED to be off duty at some point...YKWIM?

when your own children who are raised in your daycare start to point out bad children in the store and restaurant and start to tell you that they need to stand in the corner because "we don't behave like that"Comment

When your own kids call you "Mrs.B" because they know it will get a quicker response than "mom".Comment
