For those of you out there that don't have kids, and are wondering if you should have them, I present you this:

Summer used to be just a ball of fun and freedom....I would travel (pic above is from Mexico) and read and sleep late and stay up late and go to happy hour a lot and travel and watch every movie that came out. However, Summer has now become like being in in-school-suspension. Trapped. Under someone's control.
Yeah, I'm a mother now. I spend my summer days picking up poop off the floor, wiping it off butts, and keeping the dogs from eating it. I go to bed at 10pm and wake up at 6:30am to manage the house and entertain the child. I bribe my kid with chocolate milk to get in the car so I can just go to a mall (pic above is from this mall food court) and watch her play in the "birth control center" --- play area.
I can't believe I've let myself get here. Don't feel sorry for me, just save yourself.
And for all the mothers that think I'm sick, and you love being a mother, and you can't believe how awesome your life is now that you have children. Well, I say congratulations on finding your passion.
