<p>Happy Mothers Day to all of you moms out there! I hope you are doing something fun with your family and getting lots of nice gifts. You deserve it!!!</p>
<p>The best part of being a mom to me is the joy that my kids bring. Especially when they are little and say the funniest things!</p>
<p>Earlier this week, my daughter made me laugh really hard, so I asked you on <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://facebook.com/livinglocurto" target="_blank">Facebook</a> to tell me some funny things your kids have said lately. For laughs, I have gathered a few of my favorites here today. Enjoy!</p>
