“Bought for my son and didn’t realize there was pink on them.”

This morning I was doing 4yo’s hair in the bathroom when he said “what’s that smell?”
I said “that’s the curly foam for your hair.”
“No mommy. A DIFFERENT smell.”
So I stopped and focused.
It was my late mother’s perfume. And then in an instant, it was gone.
Hi, mom.

I’m supposed to be the one who teaches him and gets him through life and today I lost my patience and yelled things I shouldn’t have. I hate myself.

I think a lot of people don’t understand what “rights” are.
No, walking around Costco without a mask on is not a “right.” It’s a privately owned company. If you don’t follow their rules, they have the RIGHT to not let you in. Get it?

UPDATE:
Today I stopped in to get coffee on my way to work. I’ve not been there in a few weeks because of vacation and home life and leaving my old job.
One of them was sitting at a table and he JUMPED UP when he saw me and said “where the hell ya been??”
Those of you who have been following along, I have sad news.
I fear the era is coming to an end.
I’m starting a new job in a few weeks that will require me to be in office more often. I won’t be here to share their antics. I’m so sad.

For the record, after my blowup:
-I told him I was sorry, and that I was really mad but that doesn’t mean that I should have yelled at him
-I held him and rocked him and sang to him
-I told him I love him so so so much and I will try my hardest to not yell when I’m mad

Holy fuck, if the majority of y’all were really in 3rd grade in 2008, I need to leave Twitter.
I was in my second year of college 💀💀💀💀
The year is 2008. You get home from school and do your 3rd grade math homework. As you wait for dinner to be ready, this comes on. No distractions other than one of the best TV shows. No phones to distract you. You’re completely focused on Drake and Josh. Completely stress free.

The day camp discourse makes me want to drop a lil’ tidbit of a confession.
I was a day camp director for 6 years. I was an overnight camp staff for 8. Parts of me still live and breathe summer camp.
But if I can help it, my kids will NEVER go to day camp.

I have a unique name—as in, I’ve never met someone with the same name.
And I hate it.
No one can spell it. It’s regularly mispronounced. And I feel like people don’t take me seriously when I introduce myself.
Unique names are cute for babies, but babies grow to be adults.

Hi, can we please stop using the idea of waiting to announce a pregnancy until 12 weeks because it’s “safer?” Miscarriages happen in the second trimester and that phrase makes those of us who have gone through it feel like garbage.

Hey, friendly tip: if someone tells you their child was recently diagnosed with autism, these are NEVER appropriate responses:
“Oh, really?”
“I would have never guessed”
“That surprises me”
“Are you sure?”
“I don’t see it”

Ever since the pride parade, my sweet, sweet toddler has been obsessed with rainbow flags because we got so many. He runs around the house waving them screaming “Flag! FLAG!!”

“Day camp” is another way of saying “summer day care” for a lot of organizations, specifically the Y.
Members bitch all summer long about it, and they don’t care if the kids hear about how much of an inconvenience they are.

I just discovered that our Hatch had bedtime set until 6:15, and the “time to rise” starts at 6:30…which means the sound machine has been turning off at 6:15 every morning. Ten bucks says that’s why my kids wake up.

Please stop putting this shit in your baby’s crib and car seat. This is so, so dangerous. Just because it’s sold in a store does NOT mean it’s safe. The person who makes these KNOWS this because she deletes all comments regarding safety.

I turned around and said “you don’t have to say sorry for your kid being sick. It’s okay. We’re all here for our kids and we’ve all been there. My kid has projectile vomited all over this waiting room before.” And she lost it and kept saying thank you.

My wife and I sought out a sperm donor and carried out artificial insemination, she supported me through two miscarriages, 37 weeks of pregnancy and 38 hours of labor, all to be listed as “father” on our son’s birth certificate with no rights if we leave the state. This is 2019.

I have dropped off 3 days a week for the last 3 years and was distracted this morning. It’s never happened before.

Day camp licenses (at least here in WI) are almost the exact same as a child care license. It’s hundreds of pages long. It’s so many regulations put into place to keep kids safe, but it’s impossible to maintain and all up to the discretion of the licensor who visits you.
