Confessions and Such

Don't feel bad that your kid might not be as cute as mine. We can't all be blessed with beautiful children.

I'm kidding.

I'm sure your kid is cute too.

(cough, cough)

Nora has a new favorite toy. It's called a wrapper. She loves it. It entertained her for half an hour last night.

I hate to admit this but Nora fell off the couch yesterday.

 I'm a bad mother.

I knew it was going to happen eventually so don't ask me why I kept sitting her up there. I tell you this, not so that someone can report me to child protection services, but so that if there's anyone out there that feels like the worst parent alive you know you're not alone. I cried for half an hour straight. She cried for a few minutes, and luckily she was fine. I will never leave her on the couch alone again.

Obviously I like talking about happier things but parenting isn't always rainbows and butterful kisses and sometimes it feels good to hear the stupid mistakes other parents have made.

Right? Bueller?

I'm making another quilt. It's beautiful. I can't wait for it to be done.

Bad weather, can you please go away now? Don't you think you've been hanging around long enough? I had to cancel two senior sessions I was insanely excited for. And that makes me angry.
