tgrimes trtlcrzy I downloaded the gifhy app but it's just freezing the pic when I save it. I tried copying the link, but when I go to post it here I don't see a "paste" option, even when I tried it with the URL link. Am I broken? When you save it to your camera roll, it will just be an image. I hold my finger on the gif & a text box pops up to save the gif.

I would never rearrange someone's furniture, but sometimes I do it mentally. Or I'll sit there and think, "what would I do if this was *my* house?" I'll put my furniture in, imagine different paint colors/decor, etc. Hazards of being an interior designer, I guess--even a sidelined one. My design brain never turns off. I'm making a mental note of your skills now so I can send you photos of my future house and you can do all the design work for me.

I looked up a house for sale in my neighborhood. The owners really liked red. Two rooms had walls painted red (one an accent wall and the other the entire room) and another room had tons of red furniture. The nursery was the room that was entirely red and black. They actually painted the ceiling black. It looked like a nursery for baby Beetlejuice.

I cannot with these children. At what point do I just accept that I'm a shitty mom?

Ah, sing2phins, I'm sorry it's been rough. You are NOT a shitty mom. I've been feeling like a mom failure lately too. Parenting is hard work. Kids definitely push you to your limits. Take a quick breather if need be and try to clear your mind for a few minutes and give it another go. You are a great mom.

I never thought my kid could push me to my limits as much as he does. I am terrified for when Ben gets to that age too!

sing2phins - I had yet another pick-up where Colin took off and a teacher had to help me coax him out of a random room and out to the car. Last week, someone driving past stopped to ask if I needed help while Col thrashed around on the sidewalk in the parking lot. Parenting is hard and kids are walking, talking challenges. It doesn't make us bad parents, it makes us parents in the real world. I know it sucks and it's hard at times not to feel like a failure, but you're not. So many hugs.

I'm sorry you're having such a difficult night, @sing. They're little and using us as their guides -- and that can be exhausting and frustrating at times. Be kind to yourself -- you're doing a good job. Hugs to you.

Ps... I don't know who some of you are... I know I'm late to the party here but can we maybe make thread in the private board about it? I didn't see one yet, but I didn't want to start one if it already existed somewhere.

Yay for a great interview csho! Sorry about the therapist moving. Hope her replacement is just as good with V. @ tgrimes I was worried for you, but I should have known you wouldn't let that last for long. Bottoms up! sing2phins you're having a bad day. We all have our bad days, but you are a great mom. Hope your night improves.

I spent the afternoon at the mall with the kids. They love the mall. We have a routine of what we do. Dunkin, eat, lego store to build, Disney store to play, Barnes and noble to play with train track, food court to ride the carousel. Today we also stopped by a go cart track to watch people race. Sometimes we also go into Dave and Busters and pretend to play games. I'm pooped just typing all of it.

My kids love it too and don't understand they aren't actually playing. Hehehehe.
