So I figured with day 2 of #NaBloPoMo I’d start off with my 5 reasons why being a mom sucks. Yea I said it…”Who gon’ check me, boo!” And this is my blog and I can write whatever I want…nanny nanny boo boo!!!
- I don’t like the sight of blood. I don’t know about you but I swear if one of my kids has a cut or a wriggly tooth *lawd* and insists on me seeing it, I literally almost get faint. Go to your dad kid! Now add this to the bad mom award but when my youngest was almost 2 she had two boils that had to be lanced. I made the mistake of looking over right as the doctor pulled out this sharp azz blade and cut the boil. I broke out in a cold sweat, almost passed out and thought I was gonna throw up. Yea…all at the same time! So I left my crying toddler in the room. Yep bad mom award!
- If you don’t feed your children organic/locally grown/non-gmo/vegan diets than you’re a bad mom. Ugh now this one totally gets on my nerves. I try to feed my kids a diet so that Child Protective Services won’t arrest me for neglect! I kid I kid…but seriously there are days when I’m sure they had too much sugar or gawd forbid they ate bacon.
- Kids are little germ magnets. If there is some cold/virus floating around they are bound to get it and bring it home to share with the rest of the family.
- If someone hurts your child you can’t go to that kid and karate chop them in the throat. Now this part of being a mom is the worst. Nobody messes with our kids! Especially some entitled little snot of a kid. My oldest came home and told me something another kid said and I had to weigh the cons of what would happen to me if I went to her school and grabbed the kid by the collar. I decided to be the adult and take the high road. It was hard, but I did it.
- I’m stingy. Blame it on me being the youngest but I don’t like to share…even with my kids! I may or may not have a hiding place where I stash my Golden Oreos. Judge me if you want but they are mine mine mine! LOL
Seriously being a mom is one of the funniest, craziest and most stressful things I’ve done but I wouldn’t trade those little crumb snatchers for anything. What’s one thing about being a mom that sucks to you?
GIRL #3…well all of them but right now in this moment I am all about #3!!!! Just got a letter today from Emma’s teacher that said she’s been exposed to Strep…JESUS please don’t let her get strep!!! I remember one time the kids were sick and one of my in-laws (side-eye) asked WHY she was sick…she is sick because I let her play with some sick kids (insert sarcasm)! I was like seriously Darrick please don’t tell me anything else they ask you…because I cant be sure my response will be the right one!
LOL!!! You know how in-laws are special! Girl a kid threw up at Mo’s school Thursday and I was those cooties better have stayed there!
I can most definitely relate to 2 through 5… My husband thinks I’m crazy because I refuse to share a drink with my kids. I don’t want their little kiddie germs! LOL. And I’m very stingy. I have hiding spots so good even I forget where they are sometimes.
I’ve found candy that I forgot that I hid too! LOL I’m always like “Jackpot!!!” haha
Girl……I couldn’t wait for this post. You are sooo funny. I am not a mom, but I have nieces/nephews who act as they are my own and have experienced some if not most of these. Great post, booh! 🙂
Bobbie you know I have NO SENSE! Thanks for stopping by and being a part of my foolishness! LOL
The non stop talking. My baby doesn’t care if I am on the phone or in the middle of something she needs to get it off her chest that is just what she is going to do. I’ve learned to tune her out until she hits me with the, ” Did you hear me?”
Mo STAYS interrupting me with “important” stuff when I get on the phone…smh!
OK….. I feel you. 100%
The list could have been longer but I didn’t want to appear to be one of THOSE moms…haha!
