I know....talk shows are stupid and a waste of time...but this one caught my attention. Besides, I am a Mom and that's what the show was about...so, I had to watch.It was basically a show of eccentric strange Mothers airing their dirty laundry on the most popular show on daytime TV. It was almost like they were just making stuff up. Who does this kinda stuff? Really? I couldn't even imagine.
They were all complaining how hard Motherhood is. "Confessed" to feeding their kids pizza for breakfast, went 3 weeks without bathing their kids, went for a week without bathing themselves, used maxi pads and tape for diapers, taking Valium to get through the day, and just being plain crazy.
I just can't accept any of that. Some of these Moms only had 1 kid. So do I. I have never come close to doing any of these crazy things. I have taken a shower and gotten dressed every single day since my child was born. It may not be till later in the day some days...but, never the less...I did. She gets bathed....eats meal time appropriate food, and I do not use my feminine products to keep her dry. That is just plain stupid. Get in your butt in the car and drive to the store people. Its not that hard.
We all have our moments. You can' t be super Mom all the time....but, you do have to just be responsible. That's not too much to ask for, is it?
My Mom confession for the day..... I am guilty of giving my 2 year old doughnuts for dinner with Coke in her sippy cup and I let her watch Sponge Bob while she devours the fried dough and gulps the sugar water. Then, an ice cream cone dipped in chocolate. Just kidding.....
Share your Mom confessions with me.....you know you want to.
I give Colt fruit snacks every morning, it is the first thing he asks for and I figure giving them to him is much better than him pitching a fit at 6 AM! Sometimes they are the Gerber 100% Fruit Juice sometimes they aren't, but oh well Happy Kid Happy Mama :-)

ReplyDeleteWhen you were little..(4or5).. I would put a small pitcher of milk in the fridge and a tupperware container full of cereal on the counter. THEN...invite you to make your own breakfast and watch tv alone. All just so I
could sleep late. Even thru all "the abuse"
