I was a really good mom before I had kids ...
A former member of the West L.A. Moms Club (who moved to Texas) writes about picking up this book at the library and LOVING IT: "I Was a Really Good Mom Before I Had Kids'' By Trisha Ashworth and Amy NobileIn.
The spirit of the authors' love of "If you've ever" lists, here's one of my own. If you've ever:
* Served frozen waffles for dinner (doesn't that smidgen of whole grain count for something?)
* Stayed in your pajamas for the entire day (or two)
* Let your kids watch one more show because, after all, Noggin is "Like Preschool on TV"
* Ignored your nap-deprived child as he played with your cell phone because, frankly, a $50 phone call to China would be less painful than taking it away...
This may be the book for you. Peachheaders were recently asking for readign material -- looks like this one is a winner.
