A Homemaking Journey: Homewrecker

Homewrecker

What is my idea of a "Homewrecker"?

Even though, the first thing that ~~drops~~ pops into my head is my favorite burrito at Moe's called a Homewrecker, it's really not my true idea of one.

The urban dictionary's definition of a homewrecker is, "A person who takes a taken individual with the intention of breaking up the relationship and creating a relationship of their own. Meaning not a homewrecker unless the person in the relationship leaves for the other person." The grammatical errors were not edited but I did edit the spelling errors from the "dictionary". By the way, I wouldn't recommend looking that word up in the urban dictionary as it contains offensive material. (YIKES)

Leaving aside the Urban dictionary's definition of a homewrecker and the catchy lyrics of the country song, my idea of a homewrecker is a combination of the following:

Crumbs
Water
Paper Clippings
Sticky Substances, usually from food
Poopy diapers, especially leaky ones

Yes, generally the items in that list are messes created from kids. The kids I love and will gladly keep, the messes, well, they are homewreckers.

This was fun to read, you or your readers may also be interested in our cloth mama pad give-a-way!

Who we are:

We are two moms, entrepreneurs and writers who always have a lot on our plates.

Dawn and Shiloah met and became best friends in the great state of Texas. 13 kids later between the two of them and who knows how many moves, they are still the best of friends and their website and blogs are therapy for them as they long for a get-away on the beaches of some remote island.
