Worst Mom Ever
Oh how I long for the day where I don’t have to choose between a journal entry, scooping dog poop or taking a hot bath! I can’t believe that I used to have hours on end of free time to do as I please, and I usually ended up wasting it anyway. The things we don’t know before we have kids…the time we have but don’t even realize it. However, my time now is better spent shaping humans of the future, so although I may stink and have a dumpy backyard, at least I am now contributing to society in a meaningful way. Let’s just hope the kids turn out okay, or I’m royally screwed.
So, here’s the latest in why I’m the Worst Mom Ever:
1.) I let Quen watch ridiculous amounts of computer “TV”. My thinking is if it’s some type of mini-episode of something on the computer, it’s not actual TV. It’s educational, so it’s ok.
2.) Quen was playing with these hard plastic balls that go with a little Weeble house…they are very hard and not heavy, but they are not light either…well, he tossed one into the air, and all I heard was the sick “thud”…the ball plopped right on top of sissy’s head…it was probably on her soft spot that may or may not have closed up by now. Hopefully this doesn’t cause long-term damage…
3.) Now that sissy doesn’t cry ALL the time, I put her in her Exersaucer to “play” more often than I probably should. I’m sorry, but four months of continuous holding and/or babywearing is enough sister…go play or something.
Love and hugs and all that good stuff. I love all my royal pains in the butt that I call my family. More “worst mom” stuff later…

- Once a self-conscious girl with no direction -- then a miserable working stiff -- now a grateful, albeit fatigued, stay-at-home mom telling real life stories about a girl who once referred to babies as aliens. Yeah, I really did. Oh yeah, and I'm still totally self-conscious.

"We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life, when all that we need to make us happy is something to be enthusiastic about."POSSIBLE MEANINGS OF LIFE
• To help someone find their meaning. • To learn a lesson. • To save a life. • To provide a service - large or small. • To live your own life to the fullest. • To offer something meaningful. • To procreate. • Nothing.Archives
