11 Things I DON’T Do As A Mom

It would appear that we are all secretly curious as to how other mothers seem to pull it all off — the cooking, the cleaning, the husband-keeping, the children-rearing, the exercising, the styling–shall I go on?

Because I’m already exhausted just thinking about it. 

I came out in the open with my mothering transgressions over at Babble this week, in my first-ever gone viral article–and allow me to assure you, there are some doozies of the comment world in there. Everything from “you should never have become a mother!” to “what do you all do all day then?!” that made me both shake my head and laugh.

So if you’re curious, click on over to see my confession of the 11 Things I DON’T Do As A  Mom. And please, leave me a nice comment to assure me I’m not really the world’s worst mother?

    Just wandered over her while visiting at beauty through imperfection. Popped over to read your post at Babble. And all I can say is that I have to confess to almost every one of those as well. And since my kids are now (mostly) grown and are not only alive; but are happy, healthy, well adjusted (again… mostly) individuals. So I think it will be ok. ;0)
