It creeps...Mommy guilt is the worst, isn't it? It creeps up at the most random times (dentist office? How dare it!). I had a realization last night. My children are happy. They scream and play and wrestle, and read and learn, and are happy. And still alive. That is probably one of the most important parts. I think if they are alive and happy, I must be doing something right. So, banish that Mommy Guilt. From what I read, you are a wonderful mother, doing the best for your family that you can. And that is enough.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09670661525139676900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4982495311070974364.post-91632231060524171732011-07-29T17:59:29.479-07:002011-07-29T17:59:29.479-07:00I've found out I'm not that mom either. I...I've found out I'm not that mom either. I'd like to be, and I try to be for the sake of the kiddos, but it'll always be a struggle for me I think. I had a subscription to Family Fun with big ideas to do more stuff, but I fizzled. Hope you are more successful...which you probably will be!Jen Ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14547871720535698564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4982495311070974364.post-73151451720072876692011-07-27T12:38:48.638-07:002011-07-27T12:38:48.638-07:00Family Fun has a lot of really great ideas.

I was too busy riding bikes, and playing kick the can and hide and seek and swimming. I think sometimes our world tries to have our kids do too much. Some is good, but there should be no guilt sitting and reading with your kids. YOu are a good mom! (I too get that magazine...for guilty mom sake.)Stefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14735618188851876515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4982495311070974364.post-84860111175939607042011-07-26T16:53:25.564-07:002011-07-26T16:53:25.564-07:00I just love you!

I can so relate to this idea of wondering if and how I will eternally screw up my children. Maybe I need to go get some glitter too!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10454873832299688817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4982495311070974364.post-53766105455170149522011-07-26T14:32:22.289-07:002011-07-26T14:32:22.289-07:00I don't think anyone is truly THAT-MOM!
But it...I don't think anyone is truly THAT-MOM!<br />But it is fun to do crafts with the kiddo's once in awhile.<br />I actually remember when Family Fun magazine started - it is a good one.<br />I also remember coloring pasta and making necklaces when I was a kid - brings back alot of memories. <br />Now that I think about it though, I never did that with my kids. Go figure.CBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16911579093553356167noreply@blogger.com
