Real Moms let their kids play with the Easter stuff early so they (the real mom) can play on their computer for five more minutes.

I tag: my sister-in-law, Carrie, Dutch Blitz, coffeesoup and… Beach Mama. Sorry dudes.

Don’t forget: you have to include a picture.

I’ve been tagged by Erika to do a little meme-y thing. I’m terrible at these. I’m not very interesting, I don’t have any great secrets to reveal and I never get any comments on these… so I usually don’t do them. However, Erika is a sweetie and I owe her. She asked me a really hard photoshop question like three months ago and I still have not gotten back to her. I suck. So here’s me trying to make up for that.

Seven Blogs To Tag
Everybody who reads this who doesn’t have anything to write about already…that means YOU! You can even have a little tag graphic for your blog if you want it.

Just drag it to your desktop (or however you pc people do this) and host it on your own server/flickr or whatever… cause you know how I feel about hotlinkers.

Coming next: Another tag! My contribution to Real Mom’s.
