What was I thinking?

You know, before I ever had children, in my mind I was the perfect parent.  I am a well educated intelligent being, so surely getting children to eat their greens, mind their manners and be well behaved was a matter of instilling good habits and appropriate guidance.  I was going to be the embodiment of an earth mother, have endless patience, be loving, kind, fair and just in discipline.  I would not shout at my kids needlessly whenever I was feeling tired or ratty.  My kids would never watch tv, nor eat junk food and would be the epitome of cuteness and endearment.  I was going to be a vision of motherly loveliness.   

Ha ha ha ha, hahahahahaha, ha ha ha ha ha .......... ha ha.
