  • Dear Mother Nature,

    In case you missed the memo, here is another reminder that is is OCTOBER, which means it's FALL. Therefore, 92 degree highs and 1000% humidity should no longer be happening. Please bring on the fall like weather soon.

  • Dear DD,

    Thank you for sleeping from 9pm-5am last night.  Let's keep moving in that direction.  I also can't believe you are almost 3 months old, when did that happen?

    Love,
    Your well-rested Mommy

    Dear pile of laundry,

    Please wash, dry, fold, and put yourself away.

    Sincerely,
    Lazy ass who doesn't want to touch you
  • Dear DD,
    Please stop peeing in your pants. You've been potty trained for 4 months. You set a new record yesterday by wetting 4 outfits then peeing on my bed. I love you but this is getting old.

    Love,
    Your Mama who doesn't have time to do laundry every day
  • Dear DS and DD,

    I love you guys, really I do...but this new 550am-6am wake up is not cool.  I expected this next month for daylight savings, what in gods name are you thinking?  No need to rehearse!

    Love,

    Your tired mom that prefers to wake up before you to get ready.

  • Dear DD2,

    I know you don't feel well but waking up at 2:30, refusing to go back to your bed, and then only sleeping in short 20 minute increments with me, is unacceptable. Please do better tonight.

    Love,
    Your tired Mommy.

    Dear Congress,

    It is outrageous that you continue to be paid while my husband, an essential government employee who is still working, is not. Please do your job. The American people deserve better.

  • Dear New Job -

    Please fall into my lap.  Oh, and can you be like 5 mins from my house, too?  Minumim 2 hours a day is killing me. Salary is negotiable.

    Thanks,
    Me

    Dear Sister -

    We didn't speak for months because I nearly had to miss PART of a function for one of your kids.  I invited your kid to DD1's birthday well over a month ago.  All DD has been talking about is seeing her cousin at the party.  So thanks for dropping that bomb that he's attending his friend's birthday party instead.  I'll let you explain that one to my disappointed 4 year old.  And don't ever guilt trip me again.

    -Not looking forward to that conversation with DD1

    Dear DH -

    Thank you.  For everything.

    Love, Me

    This. Plus, since I'm a government contractor, I'm currently in stop work on everything. But there are a lot of people out there that are way worse off than us. Just sad all around and I cannot believe it's come to this.

  • Dear appt booking ladies at the OB/GYN office -

    Why the eff are you always such bitches?! I am so sorry that I have a job, that sometimes requires travel, and cannot simply make a mid-day appt on a Tuesday with one week notice. Stop giving me 'tude and work with me here! I am the one that is pregnant, don't make me get all hormonal on you.

  • Dear DS,

    Please do not get kicked out of the new daycare that we are starting with tomorrow.  I cannot hunt for new childcare every few weeks.

    Love,
    Mommy

    Dear Mom,

    Your snarky comments are not endearing you to me.  DH & I reached the decision together for him to take a job half way across the country that doubles his salary & is in a low cost of living area.  Beat staying here & having his salary cut in half.  We have two children to raise and need adequate funds to do it.  Get over it - I am moving with the kids come summer.

    Your daughter

    Dear Aunt,

    Thank you for your o' so helpful comments on daycare.  One having the same floorplan as the one you worked in 15 years ago tells me a lot.  I checked them out - they suck.  The other one you so helpfully recommended is 30 minutes out of the way and has had two infractions in the past 2 years that I cannot look past.  I know you are trying to help but unless you are using one or have real knowledge of the daycare lets drop it.  I've got this covered.

    Your Niece

    Dear DH,

    I know you are homesick for us but I do not have hours every night to be on the phone.  I have meals to cook, kids to corral & like a few minutes to myself.

    Love your Wife who misses you very much but still has to keep the house running
