I was thinking this morning what a fucking FANTASTIC mother I am as I flipped pancakes for the Kid’s breakfast. On a school day, I thought to myself. And it’s not even his birthday!
But really? I made pancakes because it’s been so long since I grocery shopped we have nothing else in the house that could be even remotely in the category of a breakfast food. No bread, no eggs, no milk, no oatmeal, no potatoes, no cereal. Seriously.
So pancakes it was. It turns out that I’m not really Mother of the Year, after all.

Bite your tongue, woman.
No matter what the circumstances, pancakes = Mother of the Year. And if you happened to cut them into cute, little shapes, we’re talkin’ 18 months!
My kids get a frozen waffle… not even toasted, I just throw that thing in the microwave to unfreeze it, then make them eat it in the car wrapped in a paper towel, as I yell at them the whole time - “HURRY UP AND DO NOT DROP THOSE IN MY CAR!”
And we are late because of me… ALWAYS.
You are Mom of the Year…. compared to me :)
Pancakes on a school morning! You ROCK!
You’re still an awesome mother, because mine would have let me starve rather than lift a finger to make pancakes!
