I logged on to check e-mail and was smacked in the eye by some headlines.
First there was the woman who tried to sell her newborn for fifteen-grand o she could go to Disney with her other two kids. Oh, man, if I was Disney, she'd be banned for life.
Then the man who killed his pregnant wife.
And finally the guy who broke his girlfriend's baby's legs.
Y'all, sometimes I miss my time, sleeping in, independence, and sanity. Sometimes I get tired of the whining, crying, constant demands for my attention, laundry, and the smell of poop, pee, and other effluvia. Sometimes, I would give just about anything for some peace, to sleep late, eat something hot or cold rather than tepid. But if I had to trade in one of my children?
No way.
There's nothing on this Earth worth this*:
Or this**:
How 'bout you?
*I practically had to beg him to stand still for a picture. Suddenly he's camera shy. Oy.
**If you look carefully, you can almost see the vestiges of her tooth on the lower left center of her gums.
