However, if today was my last living day on earth and I had a choice to watch one of my favorites before my time was up, I'd hands down choose Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
Now instead of rambling on and on about why I love that movie so much, let me tell you what made me think of this today. I wasn't just randomly reflecting on my favorite 80's movies. After all, what busy parent has time for that, right?
It was this thing that I kept hearing over and over again from the 1st moment I woke up this morning...
"Mom"
"Mom"
"Mom"
And as my 3 guys persistently called my name, I resisted my usual urged of telling them that I changed my name to "Dad." They never seem to use that name in this house! Instead I had an instant imagine in my head of this man:

And I all I could hear was the morphed voice of my children turned into Ben Stein's voice...
"Mom"
"Mom"
"Mom"
It just made me laugh, you know?

Oh how I love anything 80s!!!! Music, movies, clothes, colors, hair, etc... My favorite 80's movie would have to be The Lost Boys!!!

Ferris is my personal favorite too. I also remember the chorus of "Mom, Mom, Mom." I had to tell them one day..."I am NOT your Mom". They stared at me incredulously.
