I hate to admit it.

I think "that" mom is a fabulous one! Glad I found your blog!
I'm pretty sure I'm that Mom too, and I am very proud of it. My kids drive me nuts, but you know what?? If they didn't I would think that's weird. :)
Ok, that's funny. Enjoying your blog and your kids. :0
I think we all have a bit of "that mom" in us - we just share the perfect "mom" persona - in the park - next to somebody we "think" we can be superior to. As for me? I share that "perfect persona" next to the mother of two dogs...cuz quite frankly, if they have kids - I lose the superior challenge with my to crazy kiddos. GREAT Post!
