All About Being a Millennial Mom!!!!!!


Being a mother has always been hard, but now, in the 21st century, us millennial moms are really out doing ourselves. We set the bar high! Because we want our kids to have the best, be the best, and receive the best.
To hell with just loving your kid and doing the best you can...that's the mark of a failure. You need to try harder. If you're a good mom, then you will make sure that your kids stay occupied and engaged with soccer and ballet, and socialization...but don't over-schedule them, and be sure to closely monitor their screen time.
It's also important to ensure that your kid is getting a balanced diet full of red meat, fruits, veggies, and probiotics. Milk isn't as good for them as we once thought, so take it easy on the chocolate shake shake.
Also, be sure to invest at least 5 of the 3 hours you actually see your offspring on weekdays, on extra academics... just school, is not enough. Our kids must do more, to be better!
Craft their projects, and always keep the ingredients for slime on hand.
Fila's, are not okay. Wal Mart is for poor people, and Target is for slightly less poor people. Nike has been replaced by Under Armour. Are you taking notes on all this, because you should be.
Your child should remain in a rear-facing car seat until age 10, and if you choose to put your kid forward facing before then, you're an idiot.
Don't be a helicopter mom, but don't be one of those checked-out mothers who allows their kid to roam the streets or walk to the grocery store a block away with her friends either. Cell phones are must, so that you can track them. The world isn't a safe place.
Now, more on their health...to vaccinate or not vaccinate? Either one will get you shamed, so just toss a quarter. Breastfeed, or your selfish.
Also, you should understand that it's your job to throw awesomely themed birthday parties, with ponies, bouncy castles, custom decorations, expensive cakes and soufflés, an organic watermelon crafted into a shark or shopkin,  complete with spring water and smoothies to drink. A back yard bash with homemade cupcakes and Kool-Aid will not suffice...don't think it will. As far as gifts go, the newest version of iPhone is to be given at age 6... and for kids under 6, an iPad will do...so that they can start getting their tech time in as soon as possible, ya know. Even though screen-time is bad and we know it... devices are necessary.
And another thing, your kid needs vitamins... kids are lacking nourishment these days, despite the fact that so many mothers are making conscious efforts to feed their children healthy non-GMO, non-gluten, non- dairy, low sugar, dye-free foods. If you don't know what GMOs and gluten are, then how the hell are you even a mother?
Every day during summer, should be spent poolside. Make sure you put sunblock on your child, but not just any sunblock, you gotta buy the expensive shit, with no added parabens, as to not cause cancer... or apply raw, organic coconut oil every 10 minutes. That's what I would do.
If you have a job, quit it...because your kid needs you. Not enough money to go around, then figure it out. Oh you stay home? Well, aren't you lucky, must be nice.
Judgement...being a millennial mom is all about judgement; can't forget that!
Don't over-medicate or under-medicate your child... Make sure your kid looks clean and stylin', but take it easy on the hair gel because it's bad for them, not to mention it will leave his hair crunchy and you will feel the need to have him wash it, but we all know that too many baths or showers during the week, can wash away the skin's natural oils, so figure out a way to balance that. I'm not sure which is better...a dirty kid, or a kid with dry skin? Hmmmm... so many choices as a millennial mom.
MOST OF ALL, when you become a mother, realize that your life is now over, and your very soul belongs to your kid! Exciting!
Craft with  for them,  admire them, and kiss their ass... or this mama gig, just ain't for you. As a millennial woman, you should know this. With all our efforts, perhaps our little Generation Zs will turn out to be perfectly able, capable, well-rounded, happy, un-entitled, wonderful people. I totally bet they will!
Happy Parenting my fellow millennial moms!

That Time My 9 Year Old Gave Me The Bird

An old Cherokee Indian, teaching his grandson about life...“A fight is going on inside me,” he said to the boy.  “It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil – he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.”   He continued, “The other is good – he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.  The same fight is going on inside you – and inside every other person, too.” The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, “Which wolf will win?”   The old Cherokee simply replied, “The one you feed.” A few months ago, I told my son (9) to go take out the trash. He didn't do it. In fact, almost every time I asked him to do it, he would "forget." When I found him outside, I said: "Hey, I told you to take out the trash." He got a bad attitude. Rolle...

Hey...Let's Catch Up

Hey guys.... I know I've been somewhat absent lately, and so, I want to take some time to catch up! Before I get into it all though, I want to say thank you to everyone who reads my blog... When I first started Crazies & Daisies, I did it as a hobby and for an outlet... I never saw it going anywhere and put off starting it for years because of the fear of  judgement... and failure...and more judgement  Once it took off though, I started letting you guys in more and more, and you kept on reading. Y'all are my inspiration, and my motivation to keep writing.  So Thank You! Now for the catching up... this is gonna be deep... I don't do shallow, I suck at sugar coating stuff, and most of all, I feel it is almost a calling of mine-- to be real with people. To let them in on my messy, unfiltered, unedited life. So here goes... Life has been full of highs and lows for the past several months. One big c...
