Uh, go ahead and cross off numbers one through five. Seriously. They don't matter. Number 6 will happen because, my god, that's what preschool is for. And THEY do it without loss of temper or self-confidence. It's a win-win.<br /><br />Seven, eight and nine will be the ones that you find you actually DO, because those are the things you enjoy the most. They are fun. Number 10 is the one I'll do for you because I love, love, LOVE grocery shopping. The frozen food aisle is like frickin' HEROIN for me.<br /><br />There's no such thing as the perfect supermom. Well, other than Erin and Mandie of course. But why should there be? The best mom you can be is a happy and balanced one: one that has grownup stimulation, gets to pick out the stories and songs, sniffs the kid and says "you're old enough to wash yourself mostly" and then flops onto the couch for the well-deserved footrub from the snoring spouse, letting go of all the sisyphean tasks that, honestly, WILL wait until you get around to them. Or someone else does. Or finally, happily fall off your guilt list once and for all.<br /><br />:-)naomic3https://www.blogger.com/profile/08389142329883158251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9198509439904574819.post-62193239122616822992009-08-18T16:14:27.554-04:002009-08-18T16:14:27.554-04:00Hi There,

Second, sorry for writing to you on your comments section, but I could not find your email anywhere on your blog. I first came across your blog through the Mom blogs site, and I wanted to see you if you would be interested in participating in a program Mom Central is doing with Disney On Ice in the Cincinnati/Dayton area. Basically, it involves complimentary tickets and a meet and greet event on opening night (9/17) in exchange for helping us spread the word about the show and a coupon code Disney has created for us. Please email me back if you're interested at lauren@momcentral.com. Thanks so much!<br /><br />Best, <br /><br />LaurenLauren Sleeperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18353347706258545503noreply@blogger.com
