Am I a bad mom if...


So I totally borrowed/stole this from my cousin's blog because I could relate all to well...I altered the wording a bit to fit my crazy house...

(I hope you don't mind Betsy!)

AM I A BAD MOM IF...

...I let Molly talk for so long after she wakes up that by the time I go get her she has managed to take off all her clothes AND her diaper?

...I let James run around in his underwear all day because its easier than asking him 5 zillion times to get dressed?

...I only play "Batman"/puzzles/fort for an hour instead of 3?

...I let Molly attempt to cry herself to sleep for an hour before going to get her?

...I take Lacy out to use the bathroom/get the mail/take a walk around the "compound" while Molly is sleeping, without taking the monitor with me?

...I let Molly/James go all day with oatmeal caked on their eyebrows without noticing?

...I let Lacy lick the kids' faces sometimes...ok a lot?

...I let their fingernails grow so long because I/they hate cutting them that they are like claws?

...I let my kids have cheetoh's BEFORE dinner?

...I let my kids watch movies so I can work on my blog?


*of course, these are all purely rhetorical and not things I would EVER do.

If you are a bad mom, then I am then worst mother in the world, I love it, because I do some of those things. I think kids don't care and if they don't , I don't either. I just say, it is part of being a kid, right??
