I love it when people can remember every date of every big event in their life. I can barely remember how old I am let alone the date of when I first kissed my husband. I am so bad at remembering my past I often wonder if I am trying to block it out (ha ha). I have a friend who can remember every little thing her child has done since the day it was born. From the first coo to when it first got the flu. I however remember having my boys and then my mind goes blank. No really my memories pick up in about 2005 when the boys are two and we moved to Hershey. And even then some of my life's events are a bit hazy. So what does that say about me?.... :)

That having kids causes memory loss....
that you're a completely normal mom! I SO feel the same way a LOT of the time.
Seriously having a baby causes memory loss having three... I can't believe you remember your name.
it says that you're a completely normal mother of boys. I am the same way. I can't even remember my second son's first word. I am only thinking about that, in particular, because my daughter is just speaking her first words. My first remembers his because I obsessively wrote it all down "like a good mother" when he was a baby. When number 2 came along, I didn't even buy a baby book until he was almost 1... Don't judge me, please! ha ha ha.
What i do want to say, though, regarding your sons and your memory, is that what really matters isn't the dates on which things occurred, or how tall they were at such and such an age, but that, when they are older, they remember that their mommy loved them and that the values they now hold - as adults - are greatly in part because of you.
have a good weekend!
