Good Mommy Day

Evidently I've reverted back to my bad blogger days. Every time I've considered blogging, I remembered how much more interesting the other blogs I read seem than mine. This may or may not be a comeback.

I have what I consider "good mommy days" and "bad mommy days." Today, I am proud to say that I'm having a good mommy day. 

A good mommy day goes something like this:

• I don't feel it necessary to clean up the mess while R is awake.
• I feel like the time passes quickly and R is well-entertained.
• I miraculously come up with some sort of new activity from already existing toys.
• Nap time commences with ease. 
• I don't feel like my blood pressure rises much (even on account of the dog). 
• I feel like I'm actually teaching my child something, instead of just trying to keep him alive.

In contrast, a bad mommy day goes something like this:

• I simply try to keep my child alive and try my best not to do anything that might leave lasting physical or emotional scars.

Is it just me? Or do all you mothers have these too?
