Mean things I make women do for my own entertainment

 The first and third Thursday of each month are always great for me because I go to MOPS.  I have already expressed my love for MOPS, so I won't go into that again, but I will repeat that I really do love this group of ladies!

One of my jobs at the MOPS meeting is to do announcements.  I think I got this job because I have a big mouth and, although it is the number one fear of most people, I have no problems with public speaking.  The only people I couldn't speak in front of would be these guys:

I will never be the keynote speaker at a clown convention because that is MY number one fear.  I almost had a panic attack just Googling clowns.  

My other job at MOPS is to do a game or ice breaker.  Since I don't actually have to participate, I try to find something very embarrassing to make the other moms do.  Why?  Because it is really funny for me to watch them.  Mean?  Yes, but so far I haven't been fired from my job so I am going to keep doing it.

Since Halloween is a few weeks away and I was coming up with the game while watching Project Runway, I decided to give the ladies supplies to make a Halloween costume.  This is what those wacky moms came up with:

I love that the moms in my group are such good sports.  I love that they can be silly and not take themselves too seriously.  Being a mom is such a hard job and it is great that twice a month we can get together for fellowship and fun.  So moms of FBC MOPS, I salute you and thanks for the laughs today!!
