2.) Tell us about a prank someone played on you or vice versa.
There is a short trail near our house and when I saw my daughters exploring the 200 square feet of wild life with friends I decided it was the perfect opportunity to prank them.
It’s not unusual to see rabbits and Lord knows we’ve found our fair share of stray cats in this neighborhood, not to mention the raccoons…it’s practically a wildlife refuge.
I crouched down behind a bush and made the tiniest, sweetest sounding kitten mew.
It’s the kitten mew I’ve been perfecting my entire life.
I let out my first desperate cry, “mew!”
And it worked instantly.
Maile was the first, “Did you guys hear that!?!”
And then again, “MEW!”
I was adorable. And obviously missing my mother. A sad kitten…needing help.
“Mew! Mew!”
“A kitten you guys!!”
I heard them scurrying towards me, the rustling of the leaves on the trail, “MEW!”
And for a moment I actually wished there was a lost kitten, the look of concern and hope on those sweet little faces made me feel a little terrible about my prank, but I was in too deep.
I couldn’t turn myself into a kitten so I did the next best thing, “RAWR!!!!”
The kitten turned into a monster/mother hiding in the bushes and the girls squealed and ran away.
My prank was a success!
But now I want a kitten.
And I think they hate me a little.
The Prompts:
1.) Write a blog post inspired by your family pet.
2.) Tell us about a prank someone played on you or vice versa.
3.) Share an Easter inspired recipe or craft.
4.) List 6 things you’ve learned from your oldest child.
5.) Open a blank blog post and “right click paste” in the body of the post…what was pasted? Explain it.

Oh man, I don’t think my girls would ever forgive me – it is totally the kind of thing I’d do though!

There’s nothing cuter than a kitten– real or fake!

That is hilarious! I can imagine myself doing something like that. I love scaring people. :P
Katy @ Experienced Bad Mom says
I always love the satisfaction that comes from mastering a skill such as the perfect “mew”!
P.S. You should totally get a kitten.

Bwah hahahaaaaa – I LOVE IT!!

I think getting a kitten will make up for the prank pulled! And, it’s good you can have fun with your kids. One day they will look back on this, laugh, and appreciate how fun you were!
I can’t tell you how many pranks were pulled in my house growing up. It makes for a great laughing fest when we all get together! So… have fun and prank on!
Kate @ Mommy Monologues says
I actually think this was quite brilliant! I LOVE IT!

Mean! Funny!
(I am incredibly impressed by their restraint in not punching you before running away. Hitting is always my knee-jerk response when I’m startled like that.)
kelley says
you are way too funny. thanks for stopping by.
Harley says
Hey there! Would you mind if I share your blog with my facebook group?
There’s a lot of folks that I think would really appreciate your content.
Please let me know. Thank you

That’s too funny! A little mean but still funny. I don’t think that prank would have worked so well on anyone but little girls. Of course, now you are hankering for a kitten…… backfire?

I think everything said made a great deal of sense.
However, think about this, suppose you were to write a
killer headline? I mean, I don’t wish to tell you
how to run your blog, but what if you added a title that grabbed folk’s
attention? I mean Writer
