Perfect parent...

Nothing like parents putting on heirs to make one feel awesome.

I'm not the perfect parent. I'm pretty sure the Carol Brady's of the world are out numbered by the Roseanne's, but it never ceases to amaze me when I see perfectly coiffed mothers with their kids perfectly dressed. Do they have some super power I wasn't privvy to in the parenting handbook?

Are my kids so crazily behaved that I should have them committed?
Do they have nannies?
Is their mom Godzilla behind closed doors so they're afraid to step out of line?
What is her secret?
 I have no secrets. I don't look well kempt, hell I'm just happy to have flip flops that are still attached at the toe. My kids are asking for everything in the store (which I am usually responding to with a steadily growing No). Sometimes they wander off and I have to frantically look for them and give them the speech about stranger danger and how if they get out of sight someone could take them and they'd never see me again (sometimes I wonder if they don't consider that alternative better lol).

I really do wonder what they're like at home. These perfect moms. Do they live in perfect houses?

What really bugs me is when they give me "the look" when my kid lets out a yelp because I yoinked something out of their hands they shouldn't have had. Really? You're kids have NEVER done anything wrong?

Judge not lest ye be judged. Oh wait, too late ya already did that!
