I suck, and I am okay with it.

I was reading Heidi's Post, And I feel like I may have given the wrong Impression of Myself. I suck. No really I do. I am perfectly okay with it to. Rather I relish in it. I have no phony I'm a great Mom. I suck.

As I read Heidi's post, I was so excited, i agreed with her all they way down her list!!! "OH Yeah, thats Me!!!" I kept shouting to myself!!!, and then I came to my senses. I am not fun. I am mean. I am a mean MOM. Aphra is nodding her head in agreement.

Okay I am REALLY tired and craby today, My Guard is down, so you'll probibly love this!

I HATE play dough, I once bought paly dough for my kids. It is still sitting on top of my freezer in a rubbermaid box, never to see sunlight. One day, I let Kezia play with one color, because I was so desperate to give her something to do(reality: leave me alone), When My kids got home they were totally ripped off that they weren't allowed to play with it. I suck. I didn't give in. I HATE paly dough. I have night mares about playdough crumbs on the floor. My kids used to Love to go over to my BFF Angela's house, she let her kids play with playdough, they LOVED her house!

Paint??? never. That too is hidden away. I imagine splatters all over the house. nightmares!!!

Helping in the kitchen?? Never. Aphra had a easybake oven. She used it once. I threw it out. Corbin had some icky boy baking thing. never used, right into the Garbage.(sorry who ever bought them for them) When I saw Korby making cupcakes with Estee, I waited for someone to come an take my kids away for lack of anything fun.

Animals??? They closest is through the glass at Petland. All my kids will have pets when they grow up, they have been in doctrinated. "when you grow up, and have your own house, then you can can cleen the poop out of your back yard, because I know you think you'll do it now, but you won't and I'M not."

Birthday Parties??! I will be paying for years of Therapy as my kids don't get Birthday parties. I tell them they can either have a party, or the $50 to spend. Hum? guess what they choose. They are going to grow up feeling manipulated. "my mom never threw me a Birthday Party, I feel so unloved!!"

I'm just going to stop there, it doesn't get any better.

Anyway Heidi, I'm glad I am not alone!!! I am not even going to proof read this, enjoy the spelling mistakes, I'm going for a nap.... Thats only fun for me!

see I suck!

Did I mention that I also don't do sugar cookies. "You mean you want me to make the dough, THEN chill it forever, THEN roll it out, THEN bake it, THEN wait for it to cool, THEN frost and decorate them!?! It's too many steps. I can't be that involved in something that will be inhaled in 30 seconds and make my hips that much bigger.
I think I tinkled a little as I read about the easy bake oven.

Your kids are LUCKY to have you too. My kids would kill to go to the Aquarium or skiing or the fun Hockey games. What about all the family jam sessions with your ROCK BAND.

You and Heidi are SUPER FUN MOMS that don't give yourselves enough credit.

I am dying to get and easy bake oven I am sure it is because we don't have one and I have fond memories of the one I had when I was little. My mom HATES them I am sure. We made blueberry turnovers on the carpet in the closet of course it STAINED. I just talked myself out of buying an easy bake oven. Thanks for saving me a huge headache.

I am dying to meet you in person. I think we would have a lot of FUN.

I don't consider myself a FUN mom just a mom that doesn't mind a mess as much as I should since ALL I do is CLEAN. I YELL way TOO much. I KNOW that my kids think I am MEAN. I do FUN things to BUY their LOVE and Thats the Truth.

I think being a Mom is just having to deal with the fact that our kids all think we are mean. I know mine think I'm the meanest mom ever! How are you not fun Anne? I am ready to pack up and move up there next door to you, you seem to always know where the party is, it's with you!!!
