Mommy-hood Fails |
Mommy-hood fail #1 - Diaper Lost
One (or two) time(s), I let my child stay in the same disposable so long when I eventually checked it the padding was one soaking gel ball. Ok...this has happened more than twice but definitely less than ten. Good thing there were no #2s. #relief
Mommy-hood fail #2 - Hungry Child? Maybe.
I clearly remember a day I was so tired, so unwilling to go and shop that I fed my toddler cereal for every feeding. Of course not the same way - bottle, bowl, you know, presentation matters. My older boy got bread and cheese with a beverage (hot for breakfast and that same beverage cold for lunch). Thank God none of them are fussy.
Mommy-hood fail # 3 - Dental Health
There have been a few days (and I blame the fact that I am disorganized and doing my best to work on it) that I have gotten my toddler out of the bath without putting his toothbrush to function in that way it was made to. I have left him to suck off the paste on other occasions. SMH.
Mommy-hood fail # 4 - Home Clothes vs Going out (Church) clothes
In the Caribbean, we have home clothes and we wear them strictly at home only. I have allowed my child to go to church in home clothes before. Hehehehe...hubby didn't even notice. I didn't feel guilty until I thought about what my mother would have said if she saw. :)
Mommy-hood fail # 5 - Bad Mommy
Taking my anger out on my child, going down the low road that makes me raise my voice at, "rough-up" or even punish my "baby-boo" for something he was completely innocent off. Letting my big son be the receptacle of my anger towards my husband or with myself.
Will continue the other 5 next week. Can you relate to my fails? Feel free to add to the list in the comment box. :) Pray for me as I pray for you. Bless you!
Love your blog, keep up the good work. I can't relate yet to the fails lol, but i can't wait for the other five! (not that i'm rejoicing in your failure lol just enjoying a good honest read and knowing that you've had and will continue to have so much more A+ plus mommy success) Blessings!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the encouragement girl. I know you'll be good when the time comes. It is His grace that sees us through and remembering to extend grace to ourselves. :)
