[blparent] How do you know you're a mother? (time to lighten up and laugh)

Thu Jan 12 03:26:33 UTC 2012

A lot of these numbers have happened to me and my husband.  He always seemed
to have spit up on his shoulder and the password on the door into his office
was jackpot diaper.
Too too funny.

numbers 4 and 5 have happened to me.
I'd love to see a dad's list and wonder if it would apply more to older

Yup, that would be true.  I could really relate to the pooping without an
audience thing.
