My toddler has no idea what a commercial is… I know that seems crazy right? You see we don’t watch TV in our house. No, no trust me I am not one of ‘those’ moms that is against screen time. It’s just that we use Netflix or Amazon Prime. So, she has no idea what commercials are.

I laughed this morning as we walked into my daughters “School”. I LOOKED like that mom all other moms hate. That mom that looked like she had it all together, that mom with the kids dressed to the nines. That mom who had so much time on her hands that made matching shoes for her kid and hair bows.

And you pick-up the remote only to find out it’s the same on every channel. Some days all you can do is laugh. There are so many moments of motherhood where I have found myself – well just in that amazement of what just happened. How is this even possible? It’s almost just comedic how crazy motherhood can be some days. Cue the laugh track.
Ohhh the adventure of mom’s black shirt…
As a mom you learn so many things that first few years of motherhood! You except change in your household. Like the increased amount of black and blue marks on your legs from banging them on baby gates, the crunch of cereal under foot almost everywhere you walk, and the sticky hand rails going up the stairs. However there are some things, like your wardrobe , that you forget about. Continue reading “The Adventures of Mom’s Black Shirt”
