Domestic Chicky

Well, despite my best efforts, I lost 2 pounds! I have been a bad future Milf-my attempts have been half-hearted at best, and non-existent the rest of the time. The colds that have plagued us all winter have subsided, but my little one couldn’t shake his cough no matter what. We finally ended up in the urgent care, where they gave him asthma type medications to help open up his airways…didn’t help, and they made him throw up…a lot…which may explain my weight loss, as vomit is the one thing about being a mom that makes my stomach churn. Hella-poops, no problem…blood? Meh…just don’t throw up in front of me…

Experts, teachers, books, doctors, all tell you the importance of children learning gross and fine motor skills…one of these is learning about putting in and taking out. Easy you say, but no! You read the magazines or articles, and they tell you that this toy is great or that rolling. talking, eating, blinking, light-up toy is better. So, sticking to your guns, you go with a classic-your basic no-frills, plastic Fisher Price shape sorter. Dumping out is no problem-this kid was born to dump! But putting in…hmmm. Not so much. Until one day, your little one gets into the trash and pulls out a soda cup and puts the straw in that little hole on the first try…
