I am that mom

1. The mom that is making low sugar carrot cake with low sugar cream cheese frosting for Hannah's 1st birthday party. Which, incidentally got very negative reviews from my co-workers. Someone stated "She'll only turn 1 once!" To which I reply "Isn't that true of every birthday?"
2. The mom that, on the other hand, gave Hannah her first taste of chocolate milk the other night, which Hannah couldn't get enough of. And because the joy on her face was so cute, I kept giving it to her. Ruining her dinner.
3. The mom that when I notice that Hannah has been tailing me all morning and I can tell wants picked up....I pick her up. Every time. And she kisses me.
4. The mom that has given up on housework. I fired our cleaning lady for financial reasons alone. I've thrown my hands up. I have a dirty house.
5. The mom that not only walks home from church, but is officially running the WPAFB marathon on Sept 18, 2010. I need new shoes and the weather needs to go above 40 here real soon...I start training in May!
6. The mom that makes her husband and daughter empty the dishwasher.
