Mom fail

No matter how chill, or crazy your child is... you/we all have parent fails. It's going to happen again and again. My six month old fell off my bed... and got a fat lip. I was so embarrassed and felt like I failed MAJOR. He was fine, he cried for only a few minutes... I felt HORRIBLE but he was fine. And I had to let go and realize, it happened... and now I have to do everything I can to try and prevent it from happening again, and move on. BREATHE. Shame myself. BREATHE. Move on. I didn't even want to tell anyone that happened. Cuz how could I let that happen?? If we keep all those parenting fails on us like a weight... then it will bring us down. And we also need to realize OTHER PARENTS MAKE MISTAKES TOO! So if you're feeling less than an adequate parent today... just bear this in mind. My child ate a piece of dog poop last week, so you're already doing better than me. #keepstrongandparenton Can you top me in my short 9 months? * #Googlehistory: 9 month old eats dog poop* #fail
