His particular favorite is fuzz from anywhere:) As to the other moms looking like they have it all together I can promise you that they have their Bad Mom days. Jamie is 18months and very curious, adventurous and so many other things. Its what little boys do. I will tell you that I get irritated and then he does something that makes me melt...thats how I get past those bad days. Good luck hun...your baby is adorable and you sound to me like an amazing mother.Melissa Thomasnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166448254428336407.post-75444768449698889652011-06-22T17:36:44.432-07:002011-06-22T17:36:44.432-07:00Sarah

I look back at some of my bad days and wonder what was going on with me...now I am thankful that the good days definitely outweighed the bad. Hope today was better for you.Ali Workentinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10536435759964406148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166448254428336407.post-60107475229341202002011-06-22T17:33:22.971-07:002011-06-22T17:33:22.971-07:00Dearest Sarah, any one that tells you they love be...Dearest Sarah, any one that tells you they love being a mom all the time, they are never impatient with their children, have dinner on the table and laundry folded all the time LIE. Just sayin'. You ever need a dose of real life just call and talk to any of my kids--they can tell you. :) I love them. I love being their mom. But some days, it totally stinks, cuz life is hard. Don't be so hard on yourself...please? You're doing great. Just keep lovin' those boys of yours.Marie-Knitting the Momenthttp://www.knittingthemoment.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166448254428336407.post-41755991762853783132011-06-22T16:33:44.676-07:002011-06-22T16:33:44.676-07:00Great blog!

Perfection is not something I want to even pretend that I can attain. Yesterday I was very tired and irritable, unusually impatient with my son. As I laid him down for a nap (which he didn't take), I gave him a big hug and said, "Buddy, I am so sorry that I've been so short with you today," and he looked at me with so much love on his little face and said, "It's all right Mommy. I love you so much" and gave me the biggest, warmest hug. Those beautiful kiddo's of ours are amazingly forgiving of our own short comings and that in itself is a blessing.krueterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02049063643385822001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166448254428336407.post-61538378126848849582011-06-22T16:32:31.386-07:002011-06-22T16:32:31.386-07:00I love this post, Sarah!!

It has been a real problem for me. But the cool thing that comes out of it when they are older, is you can have great talks about the realities of life (like Mom isn't perfect kind of talks...) <br /><br />All that you said, I can relate with, hopefully that will help you not feel alone!!! :)tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06993412161317189116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166448254428336407.post-66107657658578474812011-06-22T16:32:23.132-07:002011-06-22T16:32:23.132-07:00Oh Sarah, I know this is going to sound so weird, ...Oh Sarah, I know this is going to sound so weird, but you made my day when you just said it like it was this morning on the walk - "I am have a bad mommy day." Seriously - I needed to hear a real mom say that she was having a hard day and that life was not perfect. I get really hard on myself and feel like I need to be perfect like how I think other moms are :)<br /><br />Thanks for being you - you are a joy to be around and always lift my spirits. I wish the last couple of years that I had been honest like you were today - it would have really helped me.<br /><br />I remind myself, almost daily, that I am the mommy that God created for my daughter - not the mom I see that looks perfect, but me. You are the perfect mommy to Calvin - even if you end up with a nerf gun in your house someday:) (sorry, had to throw that in!)Amy Brannannoreply@blogger.com
