And Poof, My Moment Was Gone
Published Date: June 6th, 2007Category: Family Life, Marsha, The Babe, Opinions and Thoughts
I don’t mean to toot my own horn, but today while at Target with 2 of my girls and my 2 nephews I received several compliments…
“Do you see them? Look at how well behaved they are!”
“You must be quite the mommy, they are all so well behaved.”
“They are so beautiful, they all look just like you.”- That one made me giggle
“You handle those kids so well. You have such a nice, calm demeanor with them.”
That’s right. I was feeling pretty damn good about my mad mommying skillz. I was basking in the glory until I went to get myself a soda at the eatery area before we left the store….
All hell broke lose. I look over and M3 is playing with the fountain drink dispenser. The Babe is screaming, I mean screaming at the top of her lungs, “my poppppcooorrrnnnn”. And my 2 nephews were pushing each other, kicking each other to the point of tears, and screaming about candy. The moment was lost.
I am not that super duper mommy extraordinaire that I was thinking I was. Now people were shaking their heads. Oh, how fast my bubble was popped. Well shit!!!

Yeah, you got watch out for getting too confident. I thought I had everything together in Target too letting my three year old try on heels and entertaining the one year old in the cart with my car keys. Ten minutes later we’re by the checkout and I’m wrestling Cheetos out of the three year old’s hands while the baby screamed.
