I am the mom that sends her kids to school with no snack, who pins a thousand things on pinterest but never finds the time to do them, who picks the pacifier up off the floor and says "five second rule", whose kids go to town with *gasp* mis-matched clothes, who doesn't always make sure teeth and hair get brushed, who looks at those mom's who always remember Teacher Appreciation Day and hand-made valentines for their kids class and thinks....when does she have time for that. Yep, that is me.
"MOM OF THE YEAR"....stuffed her 1 year olds foot into a size 5 shoe only to go to Stride Rite to get measured and find out she needed a 7...wide. Got to church on Easter Sunday and pulled her sweet girl, smocked dress and matching bow, into her lap.....only to discover her daughter never put panties on that morning. Flying in at the last minute for school pickup instead of being the one that sits for two hours outside school just so little Johnny is the first one picked up.....that is me.
My Sweet Girls...who really, really did not want to take this picture :)
Regardless of my downfalls, I am also "that" mom who sings her kids to sleep, cries at every triumph, tragedy, picture, commercial, song....you name it, I probably cry. I love my kids to the moon and back, even if I don't have a cricut cutout to show it, don't always remember to send important things back in to school, and plan birthday parties the day before.....and this blog is all about being "that" mom and the crazy world of a working mom (now please stay-at-home mom's don't take offense, I just haven't figured out a way to get paid to stay at home yet :)...I know you are working mom's too!) with three silly girls who keep me busy....and I wouldn't change a thing (well, except that working from home thing....). I know I'm not the only "that"mom out there, right???
