You know you're not cut out to be a mother when, at a children's birthday party, a balloon hits you in the back of the head, prompting you to spill a glass full of Diet Coke all over the new linen pants you're wearing, and your fury at the four year-old child whose antics culiminated in this disaster is entirely disproportionate.
That, or when you realize that while everyone else brought the one year-old child gifts of teddy bears, corduroy dresses and blankets, you bought her a pair of pink, leather Puma shoes. And your reasoning behind this gift selection was, that if they had them in your size, you would have bought them for yourself.

If our plant watering regimes are any indication of how we will parent, we're gonna be great moms... if they only need water.
Don't feel bad because you have great fashion sense. You just want to impart your clothing wisedom onto the child - ain't nuthin wrong with that! :)
PS: Children are like zoo animals...best to look at from far away!
Montreagurl...I reference my Bonsai plant.
K- thanks :)
baby's first leather Pumas? the best gift ever!
Hahaha. Once my mom bought a four year old a cactus for her birthday. Now that's a bad gift. Shoes are totally fair game, I think.
