What is this Parenting Stuff Anyway?

What do you do when you feel like a 3-year old wanting to throw a tantrum?  What do you do when you have to mentally check out because you don't know how to mentally check in to being a parent?   What do you do when you know you are doing the right thing but the right thing doesn't come easy?  What do you do when you feel more like a "no" mom than a "yes" mom?  What do you do when you are supposed to be laughing but instead you are crying?  What do you do when you don't know what to do?  What do you do when you are supposed to be strong and able, but instead feel weak and scared?  What do you do when all you want is Arby's curly fries and it's just so far away?  What do you do when all you want to do is run out of the house screaming?  What do you do when you think you shouldn't blog about this, but you do anyway? 
Hope for the best.

I'm going to take a bauhth. (in my english accent)

Hang in there, hon.

Damn Arby's and their plethora of store-closing health code violations!

Amen, sista! My hardest thing as a Mother is consistency. I took a Love and logic class before we moved and it was amazing.

Good Luck! Big Hugs!
