Let's start at the very beginning...

Let's get something straight. "Mother Earth" I ain't. I am a just a mum out there trying to do my best not to raise the next psycho-killer. Frankly, I don't have a clue what I'm doing. I always welcome advice and suggestions. No, really. If you have something to say about something I'm doing, or you think that I'm doing something "wrong", then lemme know. I'll probably take the advice and do the exact opposite, but hey, it's good to know. I'd like to think of this blog as a place where the blind can lead the blind, so to speak. Surely I'm not the only mum out there who feels completely lost..? Who feels like anytime they do something good for the baby, that they found the solution by the skin of their teeth? I spent the majority of my maternity leave wondering why every other mum seemed to have it all together, and I couldn't even get through one day without a breakdown. Who couldn't wait for 5pm because she knew that The Husband would be home soon and she didn't have to go through it all alone. And yes, for anyone who was paying close attention, I did decide to go back to work. I thought it was the best thing for me, and by extension, the best thing for The Boy. But that's a topic for another day...
