blog was great to read and funny

I guilt trip myself all the time when it comes to the kids. I remember going almost 3 weeks without washing my hair. My husband noticed (cus I kept scratching my scalp) he said it smelled like ass. I’m doing better with accepting the fact that they will be ok and to start taking time out for just me.

I battle with Mommy guilt at least once a day. Dan doesn’t seem to have this dilemna. He doesn’t have any Daddy versions of Am-I-Failing-my-children? anxiety. He helps pull me out of it when it comes, sometimes just by watching him and seeing what a good dad he is, even if he gets impatient or any number of small things I fault myself for…when I see those same things in him I see that it really is okay to be human. As long as my kids know they are loved.

My dad studied with a top child psychologist when he was getting his PhD at Cornell, and he always tells me that this guy summed up what every child needs to be raised well: 1) consistency in their lives and 2) one person who loves them and believes in them

I feel guilty when I suggest to mom friends that they need to throw some guilt bags off the boat. It’s nice to know that all moms do this.

I have not had a deep conditioning treatment in months. I also have not used a blow dryer since this kid has been born for fear she will begin screaming bloody murder the minute I flip the thing on.

I’m terrible with “what it” scenarios. My in-laws live next door so the kids are constantly running back and forth between our two houses. I watch them until I see them go up to the porch but then I can’t see. Half the time after I go back inside I convince myself that what if someone was waiting for them on the other side of the porch and they never actually got inside? Then I have to call, “Did so-and-so get inside?”
