Article
Yesterday I was asked to contribute a humor-mom-related-article for a publication and it was due, like today. No problem-o! I really wanted to get my foot in the door with this magazine and I would have totally made something up just to have an article published there!
But as you loyal internet friends know....I don't have to make anything up.
I was trying really hard, though, to craft a part of my life into a funny story. Something that moms everywhere can relate to. And laugh about. Or cry about.....
Several stories came to mind. But the common denominator for all of them was poop.
I've never really thoought about it too much before now.....but why do I have so many stories about poop?
I decided not to write about that. I figured it wouldn't be the best way to impress the editors.

Sometimes I think my life revolves around "poop". The parents I sit for want to know, if they did, how many times. We even get into color and consistancy. I have talked to more dads about poop than I would've ever guessed. Let's say, between our dog and all of the diapers I change, I wouldn't want to be a garbage man in the summer at our house. I was watching Oprah the other day and they were talking about it too. Seems like everybody is doing it.:)
Maybe next time.
