worst mom ever
so at PTA last night (which i worked setting up the dinner and then SERVING it all, so do get some brownie points there??) we had a door prize raffle. so there sits a beautiful red crate and barrel french press. i have been wanting one for ages and, ironically, our coffee pot broke yesterday. so dd's name gets called and she picks a .49c necklace. so me, worst mom ever, connives and wheedles for her to go trade it in for the french press!! i am such an ass. but damn, my coffee is good this morning. anyways, i promised a necklace making event on saturday with her best bud.
I told ds his idea was idiotic yesterday, mentally kicking myself as I let the word "idiotic" come out of my mouth and directed at my young son.
(but trying to close your fingers in the door on purpose..pretty idiotic, right?)

Oh I totally would have done the same thing! French press coffee is the shit. "Selah, if you will take your pretty necklace and get mommy that cool coffee maker, I will get you TWO new necklaces at the store when we leave and they will be much prettier than this one..." 
You are nopt the worst mama ever... maybe the luckiest but definately not the worst. French press coffee = Yummy.

Every mama needs a nice cup of french press coffee (mine is almost ready to plunge). Your brownie points are probably right there in your coffee. It all comes around right? I hope your neclaces rock. I had a "worst mom ever" moment on Halloween, it was below freezing & DH too the boy trick or treating. My neighbor gave the few children who ventured out the choice of candy or a portable cd player. My toddler only has eyes for candy and my cd player is held together with scotch tape. Of course they come home & tell me how little rhthym picked the candy & I haggled with him & my husband all night to get them to go back over with no luck.
and loves french press coffee like we all do, she will understand.
Man, I'm so serious, right!! You carry somebody in your body for 9 months, nearly leave this earth bringing them forth into the world, and 5 years later they don't even think to get you a french press coffee thingy over some little trinket. Have mercy!!!
