I Watch Handy Manny! Do You Watch Kid Shows When No Kids Are Around?

I watch Handy Manny. Even when there are no kids around, I catch myself watching the cartoon created for preschoolers about a repairman named Manny can speak Spanish and has talking tools.

Here's the worst part...My girls never even watched the show! I just stumbled on it one day and started watching it when my youngest daughter was sick! They were too old for the show when it started and for some reason I became a Handy Manny fan!

My kids are tween and teen age, so I am uncool as a mom just by breathing air! The fact that I watch kiddie TV shows is just more proof I'm a huge nerd. Since I've told you about Handy Manny, here's another true confession: I watch Sponge Bob.

I know there are tons of moms who watch this show with no kids! I can't be the only one who loves Sponge Bob and Patrick. It's so twisted and funny, I just can't help it. Tell me I'm not alone.

I find myself watching Mickey Mouse's Clubhouse. The kids play in the other room and I'm still watching to see what happens next.

Dear Mom, you are not alone. I grew up watching and loving cartoons I guess that part of me never grew up cuz I admit i like watching SpongeBob. I could never understand why all kids love him unil my 4 year old daughter started watching. NOw I'm laughing with her. Somtimes I take them to buy Barbie Dvd's but it's actually for me! And let's not talk about Strawberry Shortcake or My Little pony..
