September 2008


I’ve decided to have these words tattooed on Fynn’s forehead on her 13th birthday. That way no boys will want anything to do with her and I won’t have to worry about things like boys with cars kissing my daughter in the garage after a bonfire and then getting her pregnant and ruining her life before she has a chance to get into an Ivy League school and bankrupt me so that she can graduate and get a 6 figure income and support me in my old age because jeebus knows all that money I paid into social security isn’t coming back.

In bed by 10. Up at dawn. Eating breakfast and watching the political news before anyone else in the house is awake.

Now, if Fynn would just turn into me, she would awaken with the first whiff of coffee brewing and go get me a newspaper.

I am not doing your homework for you. There is a big difference between quizzing you on your spelling words and giving you the answers to your reading questions. By the way, it is not going to be MY fault if you get an ‘F’ because I wouldn’t give you the answer. That’s all on you, baby.

Welcome to responsibility.

Hugs n Kisses,

Your Big Mean Mommy

P.S. The pouty face has not worked since you were 3. I suggest you file that one away and try it again when you’re 20 and trying to get your rich boyfriend to buy you diamonds.

P.S.S. In the future, please refrain from going to the nurse’s office because you think you have chicken pox the next time you get a zit.
