Today I was told I was the meanest mommy. That she would NEVER SNUGGLE WITH ME AGAIN. And that she would NEVER COME IN MY ROOM AGAIN. And that she will NEVER RIDE HER BIKE AGAIN.
Why?
Because I made the outrageous, cruel and unfair requirement that she wear shoes while riding her bike on the deck. No socks, no jacket, no gloves required - only shoes. But apparently that has elevated me to Worst Mommy Ever status. So it's that easy? I can't wait to see what I'm labelled when I actually do something mean. At least she hasn't learned "hate" yet. That'll be a good one when she tosses that at me.
God give me strength.
Thanks for the laugh! And thanks to older kids my 3 year old "hates" me.
ReplyDeleteOh that is too funny. Don't forget the 'I wish I was never born/I didn't choose to be born' line that is sure to come one day! Let us know how long it takes before you get a snuggle in your room! (and the bike is ridden again)

A wise friend and mother of three once said to me that if they don't hate you at least once a week you're doing something wrong . . . (bt)
ReplyDeleteMy four year old told me "I'm not going to be your best friend!" hahahaha...
