Reason #433 of why my child is frustrated with me:
Because I “have to go pee like every single day!”

Yes, I have a favorite type of pen…and YES, it messes up my day when they have all been taken from my desk…

@discoliz How did you get two kinds? Where do you live? We only have the ghost one in Northern California!

In a historic move, Iranian athlete Elnaz Rekabi who represented Iran at the Asian Climbing Competitions finals in Seoul, competed without hijab, disobeying the Islamic Republic's restrictions for female athletes.

Elnaz Rekabi is an athlete who dared to compete internationally for Iran without mandatory headscarf. Her silent protest quickly made rounds on news channels. She has now been taken to an unknown location and members of her family have been seized by police.

The world watches.

I have entered the stage of pregnancy where I will get emotional listening to a different song every day. Today’s song: Bohemian Rhapsody. I should have seen that coming. #FWM

After finishing Disney’s Cinderella
4y.o: Mom, If my dream is to be a dragon when I grow up, it will come true, right?
Me: ummmm…
4y.o: It will. Being a dragon is a better dream than a dress and slippers.

[Michelle Stevahn @MichelleStevahn]

Me: Ok, it’s nap time.
N: Ok Mom!
*Takes a small cup and downs a bunch of Nerds that I didn’t realize she had.*
N: Ok I’m ready!
I feel like I’m going into this set up for failure…

Parent Fail of the Day:
My husband just text me and said all of our daughter’s shoes are in my car…and I am at work 45minutes away…

[Michelle Stevahn @MichelleStevahn]

Husband: have fun. Don’t let anyone put things in your drink.
4 y.o. Daughter: unless it’s candy. Candy in your drink tastes good.

List of new anxieties thanks to the pandemic:
Forgetting my mask
Sneezing in public
And now I am officially panicked of going inside a mall…did that for the first time in a while today…. 😬

“Self care” today looked like my toddler scream-crying in my bathroom for 10 minutes while I try to wash just my hair and pits for the first time in a week… #goals #selfcare

Camping w/a toddler:
T: I want toast Me: we’ll have to cook it on the fire. T: I don’t want this toast! I just want cold toast. Me: do you mean bread? T: No! I want toast that is cold! *makes toast then cools it down* T: NO! *gets her a piece of bread* T: thank you!

@racheljwelcher For sure! People tend to talk out of uneducated understandings. They don’t realize many things, every baby is different, the placenta could be bigger or smaller, as well as not understanding how hurtful it could be to make those comments.

Please get vaccinated.

This isn’t political. This is what we have to do to keep ourselves safe, and help keep our loved ones from having to plan our funeral.

Turn off the TV and talk to your Dr. if you’re unsure.

[Michelle Stevahn @MichelleStevahn]

People that make the rules about masks and keeping your hands clean must have never worked with children…a preschooler just licked both my arms and then told me (with her AAC device), “I lick you. funny”.

[Michelle Stevahn @MichelleStevahn]

@sarahybethy I usually listen “I have confidence” from the Sound of Music on repeat before meetings.
