“It’s impossible to do everything right all the time. Admitting that is freeing – and it’s also encouraging to other moms in the midst of intense seasons.”
~ Kristina Slaney
How many times have you heard the phrase “wash your hands” in your life?
Me too.
I wash my own hands all the time and almost every night after dinner, you know what I think?
“I didn’t wash my son’s hands before dinner!!”
Best part? He uses a fork when he wants to, but if he’s super hungry, he eats with his hands. Yes, the same hands the played on the floor, were at daycare all day, and the same hands that pet not one, but our two dogs… All those germs… Right into his mouth.
I’ve even splurged and purchased soap just for him (Kandoo’s foam soap) and I still forget sometimes!
To be fair to myself – and so you don’t call the cops on me – it’s not a nightly thing, just a few days a week. Cuz that makes it better right?
I am the worst mother of all time.
DISCLAIMER: I started planning/writing this post a week ago and somehow, I’ve remembered to wash his hands every night before dinner since. #accountabilityworks
What’s your mom confession? Post in the comments or link up from your blog! I’d love to share stories, cuz mama, the struggle is real.
Hi! My name is Stephanie. I'm married to a great guy named Grant and am mom to two beautiful little boys, Remington and Desmond, and two pugs, Stella and Cioppino. We live in Los Angeles, and my husband has recently transitioned from full-time touring musician, to law student. I work full-time to support us, while also taking care of our sons as if it were the only thing in the world that mattered, because really, it is.
Being Mrs. Arnow 
You’re a great, perhaps the best mom.
awwww, thank you. you’re not biased at all either. 🙂
Totally not the worst mother of all time – you’re actually a FABULOUS mother because you are building him some extra-strength immunity, all natural. So take that, mommy-guilt!
