The Mom Test

A friend sent this to me some time ago. I don't know if it is true or not but it's fun to read.

I was walking with my 4 year old daughter. She picked up something off the ground and started to put it in her mouth. I took the item away from her and asked her not to do that.
"Why?" my daughter asked.
"Because it's been on the ground, you don't know where it has been, it's dirty, and probably has germs," I replied.
At this point, my daughter looked at me with total admiration and asked, "Momma, how do you know all of this stuff? You are so smart."
I was thinking quickly. "All moms know this stuff. It's on the Mom Test. You have to know it, or they don't let you become a Mom."
We walked along in silence for 2-3 minutes, but she was obviously pondering this new information.
"Oh...I get it!" she beamed, "So if you don't pass the test you have to be the dad."
"Exactly," I replied with a big smile on my face.

Have a great day, Robin
