The Time I Was a Bad Mother (Part 42)

It took a visit with family in Texas to help me come to grips with one of my first big parenting failures.

When it came to meeting my baby's needs, I had definitely dropped the ball.

Actually, I didn't even have a ball to drop.

Ultimately, I did make up for lost time.

  1. Too funny Marianne. I remember my mom saying for kids and toys to make sure they had a ball, now of course I can't remember what else she said and we are way past the toys until the grands come along (and we hope that won't be for many a year, LOL :)

  3. Before I head over, I must call into question your organized ball display so close to the french doors? I see what kind of ledge you live on Walshie!
