Lately, when Sweetums teases me lightheartedly, I reply, lightheartedly, that I’m going to beat him with a shoe. Why this phrase? I have no idea. Maybe because middle-aged moms sound stupid saying we’re going to open a can of whoop-ass?
Whatever the reason, it got me thinking about threats mamas make. Thus, this meme. If you can relate, please share. Happy Friday.
You seem to have left off “beat you with a shoe”.
