Default Reasons why being a single parent is tough..

(this is mostly silly LOL )


#1 Tooth pulling.
I can not stomach teeth. At all. Really. Vomit happens. Being trapped alone inside my apartment with a kid with a tooth dangling from his mouth is pretty high up there on the horrific scale. If I had a husband, I'd send them off somewhere to rip it out together far far out of eye/ear shot. I repeat.Vomit.


#2 Those Days Children are just plain annoying.
There's no one else here for me to say.. dude, deal with the boy.. .and I'm not allowed to bite him when he annoys me.


#3 Boy......... Things.
This covers everything boy related that I am unfortunately clueless about. Including how to wee and not get it all over the floor.


#4 Wrestling.
This goes with #2.. but in the playful manner. I may be tough. I may be awesome. But at the end of the day I'm still a weenie girl, and if you tackle me enough times I may break.


That's really all there is. At the end of the day, I think I have it pretty good & I wouldn't change a thing :] Kid and I are awesome.. We could take on the whole world ^_^ ... As long as he gets that $#^@##%@$@ tooth out of his mouth. Cause really. VOMIT. He thinks it's a bag of laughs to come stand 2 inches from me and pull on it so I gag.

give him an apple. Nine times out of ten that is how my kids got their teeth out. They (and I) are to wimpy to just yank it out so the apple usually solved that for us LOL

And I know what you mean about guy stuff. I am the only female in a house with three guys. Sometimes I just need some girl time and I am so not a girly girl but I swear there are only so many boy things I can take.

La - I love YOU! I never tell my hubby about my scrappy friends - he doesn't care. But, this was just to hilarious to pass up. We have a dangling tooth at our house too. Our first. I'm not very excited about figuring out what to do with it. Good luck with yours.

As a single mom to a boy, too, these are so true. Though the tooth thing hasn't happened here yet. lol I would totally yank that baby out though.

Don't feel bad about that one...seems like there's a lot of grown men who haven't figured that one out either.

My thoughts EXACTLY!

And just YANK that baby. If it's that loose, it won't take much to get it out. I swear. At least he's wanting it out. It was a fight to get Luke's out. Tears and all. I was so annoyed.

Well - I do say stuff every now and then. Like, "one of the scrappy girls recommended jeans from JC Penney." Crap like that. And, he hears stuff about my teams every now and then. But, seriously, he doesn't care. So, I just don't bother talking to myself (oh, I mean him) about it very often.

Men do not teach boys how not to pee all over the floor.
