the mud pie makers: Yikes!
http://www.themudpiemakers.com/p/yikes.html
Sometimes we mess up. There is no such thing as a perfect kid, and there is no such thing as a perfect mom. This is where we share our blunders and where we flounder to swim in the deep end. As moms, we mess up on a daily (if not hourly) basis. The best thing we can do is use our mistakes as tools of improvement. How can we become better moms by learning from our mistakes? If you have a blunder-ific story, please contact us or comment here so that we can post your story! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
