i'd have to say parenting can take many shapes, forms, likes and dislikes and during my 11year journey of parenting*. i've come to realize i am okay...with parenting!
well okay with a few things-ideas-situations and they are:
"poop happens" - otherwise known as sh*$ happens, because really it does! literally and figuratively. and if you know like i know... it can happen in the most interesting places.
it's okay to scream - kid(s) giving you the blues crying and screaming, don't think about tying him/her/them up or hiding in the closet, just join in- scream, cry, or fall out on the floor with them - it helps (not the situation of course but your mental stability)!
a messy nest is sometimes best because "mommy maids", well she was laid off...and the clean-up song was instituted
so why am i okay with this...
because it's life and i've heard and read similar stories from other parents [which has to mean something] and I now realize, it's okay - it's not just me! and well, knowing that in itself is awesome and gratifying!
