As a Mom......



    To all the mom’s out there that stay at home or work… I am not biased I believe all moms need to be recognized. I just want to point out to those who believe that us stay at homers have  it easy and that those who work don’t seem to pay enough attention to their kids like me just explain this to you….

I know the difference between a bear, a Mac and a Scout. I can have my coffee, a smoke and get a my kids ready at the same time. I know the difference between a binky and a banky and I know what my kids mean when they ask for parpoons (cartoons).  I can plan breakfast, lunch and dinner all while sitting at a traffic light. I know where 20 different socks are and where to find its mate. I can tell you how many hot wheels, nerf darts and marbles are under my couch along with how many Cheerios you will find in it. I can tell you which person in my house has taken a shit by the smell and who did the dishes last based on how the dish washer is loaded. I can find my husband a shirt in 10 sec flat just by looking through the door into the bedroom. I can find the “meltdown” toy in 5. I can tell you who did what to who just by the sound of the feet running down the hall I can hear a flea sneeze so don’t think you can whisper you plan in my house.  I can tell you my kids are sick just by their smell and if they have a fever.  I can pack for a vacation or move in 5 hrs flat without a list and tell you where everything goes just by glancing in the box. I know if you lie just by the sounds and tone of your voice so don’t try it.  I can BS with the best so don’t try that either. I don’t spank, or throw shoes at my kids I flick pennies.  My kids (or hubby) can argue with me but in the end I will win, and don’t try to sugar coat it my answer is still whatever I say goes. I am a Mom and I stay at home. I can do my job better than anyone and it will stay that way. Is my house pristine? Hell No. Are my kids the best dressed? Hell No. Are we the most well behaved family? Hell No. However I will tell you this, I can run my house with my eyes closed and my kids are the greatest. My husband is awesome and together we have an awesome family.  So yes the picture above is true, I am a doctor, nurse, chauffeur, cook, referee, psychologist, etc, etc.

So it doesn’t matter if you stay at home of work, all of the mothers (and dads) out there do the best they can and no one I mean no one can do it better then you.
