Home Schooling

This post isn't about me home schooling the kids - although a post on homeschooling in general will be coming up soon. No, this post is about me getting schooled. In staying at home.

As in, if your daughter - during the course of a single day - eats part of a lilac crayon, a bit of a dried leaf, a little tidbit of a foamy baseball, but not one single piece of fruit, do you get a failing grade in mommyhood?

Or, if during the course of that same day, you forget to put sunscreen completely on your son's body before he heads off to mini sports camp for the afternoon and he comes home with his first ever sunburn on his nose and neck, do you get a failing grade in mommyhood?

These are the things I'm thinking about tonight. As I'm gathering up my white jacket and my RPh license to head back to a little part-time work tomorrow.

Oh yeah, does going back to work mean that you totally failed stay-at-home mommyhood?

So much for my 4.0. Good thing I'm not applying for a graduate degree in this!
