Shit. That sucks. But this post was amazing, as they all are. And, my dear, this brought me to tears:<br /><br />&quot;It can be so tiresome to be the paragon of virtue, integrity, morality and decorum. Don&#39;t you sometimes feel that the weight of that is crushing the you inside the mantel of motherhood?&quot;<br /><br />Yes, I&#39;m exhausted.

I barely fender-bendered someone years ago, before I had children. It didn&#39;t damage her car or mine, but she spilled her coffee on her lap. She was seething from the get go. Oops.<br /><br />The cop was actually nice to me, and gave her dirty looks for her attitude. I decided that from that moment on...I would always remember what it felt like to be the one who&#39;d made the mistake. <

You handled that unfortunate accident and that rude, idiotic girl perfectly. I love the way you are able to show your son(s) the real you. It will go a long way in your overall day to day interactions with your boys. Good luck on the job front.

Oh, that Becca. So young. So angry.<br /><br />As my boys get older, we start to share more &#39;peer&#39; moments rather than &#39;parent/child&#39; moments, and you are quite right - it is one of the most freeing things EVER. If only they could see me through the eyes of my friends all the time, they might just be pleasantly surprised - I am sure it&#39;s the same for you.<br /><br />Your

A) when I read your news abt your husband&#39;s job, it felt like a slap in the face. I feel so bad for you.<br /><br />B) the reason it did, is the absolute power of your writing.<br /><br />C) glad to see your writing is holding up well even in the midst of all the turmoil and stress. I check nearly every day to see if you&#39;ve posted something new, it&#39;s so good. Oh, and great that the

Allowing kids to see your frailties once in a while is a good thing.

I would have slapped her with &quot;my girls&quot; you did a very nice thing by being restrained.
