I am laughing so so so hard. Ijust “found” you today, but I will be back. I don’t usually read “mommy blogs” (you can check my blog to see why) but you may have swayed me.
good stuff!

These are great! Nice to know that all these good mommies have had their “I can’t believe I did that” moments, and still be good moms.

You’ve all had opportunity to read about my parental failure, complete with pictures. I know there have been many, many more, through all the years of their lives, but it was so long ago I can’t remember. (Hell, I have trouble remembering things that happened twenty minutes ago…) Hopefully, the kids don’t remember, either!!

Holy moly, Wendy–that scar! Henry cracked his head on a diving board, the summer he was three, but I am hesitant to tell the story as it was not MY bad parenting moment, but another parent in this house who shall remain nameless. If you know what I mean.

Katie K, Charlie says ‘Oh Jesus’ and ‘Dammit’ in a voice that sounds EXACTLY like me. I’m proud of that one, actually.

Since I am alone like a dog, I would like to use this space to confess that I am the worst teacher on earth.

Monday I told a young man who is the puppet of a cooler, more poorly behaved boy that he needed to drop his man-crush long enough to allow us to have school.

There. I said it. But it was one on one, does that redeem me at all?

In my 20 months as a parent I’ve managed to let Connor fall off the couch onto his head more times than I can count (one time was bloody), get his leg stuck in the crib slats about 3 times (Thank you, Vaseline), pull a picture off the wall into his eye, and throw up from gagging on things toddlers probably shouldn’t eat a few more times. There was also the time my husband dropped a large toy on him and it hit him squarely in the eye.

By 15 months he had a perfect battle scar on the top of his head where hair no longer grows.
