Confessions of a SAHM | Part 5

I confess…

I enrolled Dorothy in a Parent’s Day Out program for the fall this week, and I am absolutely giddy about it.

GIDDY.

Six months ago, just thinking about dropping my kid off at a PDO or preschool would make me want to vomit. Now, I’m making a mental list of all the fabulous things I want to do with my two mornings a week (read: solo grocery shopping, showering, a morning fitness class, blogging… pedicures… ME TIME, OKAY?!).

I confess…

If I had to list the things I hate most about the toddler stage, Thomas the Tank Engine would be in the top 3.

Solidly.

I confess…

If my daughter is cuddly in the evening, regardless of her behavior during the rest of the day, I let her stay up past bedtime. I just can’t soak in enough of those elusive, but precious, snuggly moments. They melt my cold momma heart.

I confess…

I subconsciously dress Dorothy and I alike. If I decide I’m wearing black leggings and a tee, somehow my daughter ends up wearing the exact same thing. Today I’m wearing blue? 9/10, so is my kid. I don’t mean to, but it just happens.

I confess…

Most days, the Terrible Two’s win.

Don’t even tell me that three is worse. I will pretend that I don’t hear you.

LALALALALALA!….

What are your confessions on this fine Friday? Happy weekend, friends!
