Submit Another StoryMy family applied for Wife Swap. My mom went to a family that did everything together and were really corny like the Berenstain Bears. We were just laid back, not too protective. We didn't always keep too clean of a house but it wasn't horrible. We weren't religious or anything like that. It was horrible! We didn't listen, it was stupid and we ignored her dumb rules.
When I was little, my mother and grandma took a road trip to Yellow Stone National Park. I was crying in the backseat and my mom couldn't make me quit, so my grandma held me and dipped my binky in wine to try to calm me down. I was only two weeks old!
When I was about 5, my cousin and I were playing on my bunk beds. I banged my head on the ceiling. My cousin was laughing, but the impact of the hit backfired and I fell on top of her!
My sister was about three years old when she decided to pretend that our blue carpet was a swimming pool. It was all fun and games until she used the couch as a diving board and cut her eyelid open on a paper clip that I had been trying to make into a bracelet.
My mom wanted my little sister to behave so she put her in the corner. She forgot about her! Two days later, she finally got out.
My brother has no depth perception at all. He was talking to some friends and a butterfly flew like 2 feet away from him. He thought it was going to fly into him (because he couldn't see how far away it was). He flinched and jumped back. Now, we all call it "The Butterfly Incident!" LOL!
My sister and I share a room and have bunk beds. One day, I hit my head on the ceiling fan. My sister was laughing, then got on her bed and whammed her head on the metal part of my bed. I guess karma got her!

When my twin sister Wind and I were about four, we had a Barbie jeep. It was the first and last time Wind let me drive. Well, I got in and took off full speed toward the pool. My mother was on the porch and thought I would stop. Well, she was wrong. I was soon speeding toward the pool and she was yelling, "Let off the gas! Let off the gas!"
I was sitting on the couch with my sister Melissa and older brother TJ, eating some leftovers. My other older sister Olivia came in and asked for some. I said alright and gave her the bowl. She ran off with it and slammed the door to her room behind her. After a little while, we realized that she had jammed the door and couldn't get out for hours.
As an adult, I thought I was done with the "crazy mom" stories. No such luck! I got stuck at work one afternoon & can't use my cell while I'm on the clock. My mom showed up, screaming from across the store. I hear over the headsets used to communicate, four drive-thru customers, "Who is that crazy lady screaming over there?" & "That's Alli's mom, you'll get used to her."
