“I will tell you what I can’t abide – and I think the Internet has really created a space for it – women criticizing other women and mothers criticizing other mothers. It just makes me crazy, whether it’s between staying at home, going to work, how long you breast-feed, if you use formula. I feel like we should just assume everyone is doing the best they can. Women should take care of each other, not tear each other down. I would just like to see a mother who really believes that she has done it all so right, you know what I mean?”
Believe it or not this was said by celebrity mom Jennifer Garner. It hits home so unbelievably well that you would never think that you could relate with a hollywood star. This just comes to show you that all moms go through the same things for the most part. So yeah, be kind to your fellow moms. They just may do things a little different than you and that's okay They get the job done and that's point.
Happy Mother's Day!

My Mother's Day is Cursed.
*WARNING* Major whining and bitching in this post. Do not read if you are having a good day.
This year I have decided that at 9:25am on Mother's Day 05/08/11 that this day is cursed and here is a list of reasons why:
1) Matt had to work late last night and early this morning which led to
a) Not getting to sleep in
b) Not getting a special breakfast
c) minimal overall hours slept
2) Major allergy day. Allergies just S-U-C-K. Burning eyes, running nose, headache...
3) Trashed apartment when I got up. Jed decided that today was the day he was going to take out every toy before 8 AM. Didn't he get the memo??
4) Sink was full of dishes.
5) The toilet paper was empty.
6) The diaper stacker was empty which I learned in the middle of a diaper change.
6) Gravity is NOT on my side today.
7) It is beautiful out and back to reason 2, I can't enjoy it :(
8) Jed decided to stick maple syrup covered grapes all over the window sill.
9) I almost tripped over the dog numerous times.
10) Jed refused to give me a hug and kiss this morning. :(
I don't know if I now feel better or worse! Hopefully this day gets better!
Happy Mother's Day to everyone else, I hope you are all having a better day than I am.
