I am having a bad day. I don't feel well. I'm battling to get my child to eat something other than his usual foods -- to add actual fruits and vegetables of some sort to his diet. This led to a LOT of yelling this morning. More than I am happy with. Enough that I ended up crying and more angry with myself than I think I may ever have been. Enough to make me question whether I really am a good parent. So, yeah. I'm having a bad day.

Comments about my post, "":

I'm sorry. I'm having a similar kind of day: too much snow, not enough external stimulation, and I KNOW they're going to hate dinner. Sigh.

Hugs. It gets hard sometimes.

Man. I feel like I could have written this at least once a week for the past 6 months. I have at least one day like that a week. Yet I still think I'm an awesome parent because this key fact: I KNOW WHERE MY CHILDREN ARE. THEY MAY ALSO BE FED AND DRESSED. MAYBE.

You just need to set your standards lower. ;)

Hang in there. Man...those days are hard.
