You know you are a cop's kid/wife when...

You know you are a cop's kid when...

Your mom and neighbor decide to take pictures of you with your hands up against daddy's car.  Michael was not very cooperative.  We got a pretty cute one of her little girl though : )  

You have pictures from the beach of you in daddy's "cop" glasses.

Token picture of child "behind bars". This picture, ironically was taken at the Pierce County Sheriff's Dept Christmas party.

You know you are a cop's wife when...

(Some of these I got from a group I use to belong to but all are from my experience so far)

* You go out to eat a restaurant and automatically sit in the chair with your back to the door, so he can face it!

* While driving together in your family car, your husband points out all suspended drivers and moving violations.

* You ask your husband why he is so dirty after a shift and he says "Because I wrestled a half naked chick in the mud." (This was shortly after Adam started his field training)

* You go to bed, but are still "awake" till you hear the key turn in the door and know he is safe at home.

*Shortly after the door closes you hear velcro ripping

* You have to explain to your 7 year old one more time why daddy isn't home when she goes to bed.

* You hear all about the speeding ticket he just got out of because he is a fellow law enforcement officer : )

* COPS is on your DVR and you actually enjoy watching it with him and listening to him talk to the suspects/officers on the show.

* You get to wear the bright yellow vest at an accident scene during a ride along so people don't keep "bugging" you.

* You begin to worry when an unidentified car has been sitting in front of your house for longer than 2 min. We have a stop sign in front of our house; but still, move on people!

* You have a love/hate relationship with shift changes.  You love the ones that give him several days off in a row and hate the ones that he has to work several days in a row.

*You are a PROUD wife and know that your husband is putting his life out there so you and those around you can be safe.

(I could go on, this is just to name a few!)

I LOVE my deputy!!!
