Guilt is a crazy thing. It’s the kind of thing that compels you to forgo purchasing yourself a steam mop and instead purchase $170 Craftsman tool set from Sears as a Father’s Day present because you are too tired to wake up early, cook a wonderful breakfast, change poopy diapers, make a fabulous dinner and bake a banana cake for your thoroughly deserving husband. Of course, you are only too tired to do those things because three weeks ago the cutest kid on the planet flew out of your crotch at warp speed but yet you still feel guilty. I can’t be the only one out there right? RIGHT??
Don’t let the guilt fool you … you’re doing a great job

You have a beautiful family!
Totally. This year, J’s Fathers Day present was a new baby. Which he got to take care of while Mama laid in bed most of the morning. I didn’t even get the chance to get him a card.

I folded clothes for the EP for father’s day this year. Not even his clothes mind you…MY clothes. They had built up on my side of the bedroom and I knew he thought he was going to have to fold them for me (as I have given up housework until this little darlin’ shows up) so I sat in bed all morning while he was out camping with the Creep and folded my own laundry.
Set the bar loooooow sister, set it loooooow and they will love you.
Um, I only have one child and I didn’t do the cooking baking thing, so my guilt should be….times 4?
Anywho, you are an amazing mother and a fantastic wife, so no guilt, you!

What a beautiful brood you have! And hey, the sheets on that bed are WHITE so come on and give yourself a break!! LOL I HAS white sheets once upon about 4 years ago!! LOL

JEN’s last blog post..I had a terrible falll….
Your family is beautiful!
You have the most darling family! And I agree with Heidi, you’re an awesome mom, an wonderful wife, a fabulous baker, and you keep four children fed, bathed, clothed, and happy. I was just telling my fiancee earlier today about your baking and all the sweet recipes and pictures you post. How you find time to bake at all with four children is just amazing to me. And then the coupons and the bargain shopping! ..I could sing your praises all day, you are my new idol, seriously. If I can be half the mother you are when I have kids, I’ll be amazed and very proud.
