Props to the parents who do but it's definitely NOT for me. You'll make it through the rest of summer and so will I and when the kids go to school, it will be QUIET. Woo hoo!

He didn't whisper it either...all the moms turned and looked at me. I couldn't figure out if I should cry or yell. instead, I grabbed his cheeks and squished them together. I'm sure I looked real in control, up on my tippy toes and doing this to my son who stands 6'1"... somehow, I pulled it together and finished getting all $80 worth of school supplies and wondered why a lady with a sweet looking toddler kept looking at me... I swear, I think she was going to report me.. Came home, cried, made my son ride his bike to football (in his pads), now feeling like the worst mom ever.. just read your blog, and yes, I am so ready for summer to be over. You are my new soul sister. swear.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1657464649079822028.post-19801498954546894142009-08-16T21:39:21.871-05:002009-08-16T21:39:21.871-05:00Okay, you know how you secretly feel good inside w...Okay, you know how you secretly feel good inside when you witness someone else's child throwing a fit in the middle of the store? It's not bc you are happy that they are miserable, but bc you are relieved that it *does* happen to other people (and it's *not* happening to you at that very moment in time). That's kind of how I felt when I read this... I am so thankful for your honesty and appreciate you sharing this. I had my "Target moment" in a neighborhood Tex-Mex restaurant this weekend. It sucked.PS~Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16803905155373121909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1657464649079822028.post-13716198186643248312009-08-16T20:58:43.637-05:002009-08-16T20:58:43.637-05:00Kasy you crack me the F*#@ up!!

While it's all fine and dandy hearing about how moms do the play-dough, shaving cream things, lets be honest, sometimes we just want to escape motherhood! It's exhausting, monotonous and messy, and nothing like "they" tell you before you have kids!! We should all get real more often and tell it like it really is just like you do!<br /><br />-KellyTeacher Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13040192923847201981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1657464649079822028.post-78542398362965541592009-08-16T00:01:31.218-05:002009-08-16T00:01:31.218-05:00oh, I needed to read this today!

Any mother that can home-school or be a SAHM is an incredible human being. Work is what saved my life and my son needed that socialization I couldn't provide. Keep telling it like it is - it's so refreshing. Take care!
