Why Did Mothers Lips Stay Chapped on Mothers Day?

This is SO FUNNY...................,


Why my lips stayed chapped on mother's day:

We had this great 10 year old cat named Jack who just recently died.
Jack was a great cat and the kids would carry him around and sit on him
and nothing ever bothered him. He used to hang out and nap all day long

on this mat in our bathroom. Well we have 3 kids and at the time of
this
story they were 4 years old, 3 years old and 1 year old. The middle one

is Eli. Eli really loves chapstick. Loves it. He kept asking to use
my
chapstick and then losing it.

So finally one day I showed him where in the bathroom I keep my
Chapstick and how he could use it whenever he wanted to but he needed to
put it
right back in the drawer when he was done.

Last year on mother's day, we were having the typical rush around and
try to get ready for church with everyone crying and carrying on. My
two
boys are fighting over the toy in the cereal box. I am trying to nurse
my little one, at the same time I am putting on my make-up. Everything
is a mess and everyone has long forgotten that this is a wonderful day
to
honor me and the amazing job that is motherhood.

We finally have the older one and and the baby loaded in the car and
I am looking for Eli. I have searched everywhere and I finally round
the
corner to go into the bathroom. And there was Eli. He was applying my
chapstick very carefully to Jack's . . . Rear End. Eli looked right
into
my eyes and said "chapped."

Now if you have a cat, you know that he is right -- their little
bottoms do look pretty chapped. And, frankly, Jack didn't seem to mind.
And the
only question to really ask at that point was whether it was the first
time Eli had done that to the cat's behind or the hundredth.

And that is my favorite mother's day moment ever because it reminds
us that no matter how hard we try to civilize these glorious little
creatures, there will always be that day when you realize they've been
using your chapstick on the cat's butt!
