MOTHERHOOD PART TWO: If Evolution Really Works, How Come Moms Only Have Two Hands?


Love love this quote. Thanks to #happify for bringing it to me this morn:

"If evolution really works, how come mothers only have two hands?"

- Milton Berle

I’d like to add to this list:

If evolution really works, how come we still have pinky toes (to slam into the sides of couches, tables, bannisters, etc. and the subsequent trouble that ensues – see my Barry Bonds blog….)

If evolution really works, why don’t moms actually HAVE eyes on the back of our heads (like we, at times, resort to claiming we do indeed have.)

If evolution really works, why haven’t we grown an organic layer of clothing on our bodies that sheds itself like snakeskin and decomposes into the nature-chain naturally (a little gross but Oh to do away with endless laundry loads, sock sorting and dramatic weeping when the Sears washing-machine maintenance man doesn’t show up!)

If evolution really works, why haven’t kids developed giant, padded heads and bodies to protect themselves for the first 12 years of life… and then, upon entering the teenage years, that padding transfers itself to the area of the heart.

And finally this morn…

If evolution really works, how come Dads STILL haven’t learned how to multi-task?

Waka waka. The list is endless! (And, add to it if you'd like....!)

Enjoy your evolutionary day…..

Namaste & Three Cheers - OM
