Motherhood should be listed as a mental illness

Goals

My children have lots of goals. Here are a few of them:
Patton likes to see how many steps he can take before he falls, how many times he can grab the phone without me seeing him, how many buttons he can push before I catch him, how much TP he can unroll before I stop him, how many times a day he can tip over the dogs water bowl. As I write this I'm thinking that it sounds like I never watch my son, let me assure you that any of these take less than 10 seconds!
Isabella on the other hand has a goal of how many times a day she can make me laugh or strangle her, I haven't decided what one it is yet. If I get up from what I'm reading she'll hide it. If we're at the grocery store she'll put her hands on something cold and then put her hands on my bare back. It's quite funny to the other people in the meat department.
