Not Me Monday with a FREE GIVEAWAY!!!!!!

Yes folks, it's that time of the week again!! A time to come clean about your not so stellar mom moments! You know what I'm talking about. This is the time and this certainly is the place to let it all out! No holding back.

Feeling guilty about anything that you did as a mom this week? This is a great week to share those moments, because if you do, you will be entered into a contest to win a really great suprise! Details at the end!!!

I certainly did not feel guilty about sending the athlete off to school with nothing but a sweatshirt to keep warm. I also did not look out the window and see snow falling on the ground about an hour later. Nope not me!!
(On a side note here, I also did not keep replaying this day over in my mind for the last 5 days while a certain child was sick as a dog and wonder if that day had anything to do with his newly acquired symptoms. That would be foolish!)


I did not convince myself that giving my sweet child a slice of cheese and a few bites of yogurt was plenty to eat for breakfast and that she would be fine at school until snack time! I am a health conscious mom and would never let my daughter go to school with anything but a wholesome, nutritious breakfast, consisting of more than one food group. Not me!

When dealing with the sickness that seemed to linger here at home this past week, I never once got frustrated or pitied myself while nursing back to health two very sick children for days on end. Not once! I also did not snap at the coach when he came home from work on day 2 of said sickness when he asked me what was wrong. I did not glare at him and snap out, "I need 15 minutes to myself to at least take a shower!!" I would never take out my frustrations out on my husband or be a smidge bit jealous of the fact that he was not stuck home for the past 48 hours dealing with sick children. Nope not me!!
