Pregnancy and Disney World: More Alike Than You Think
Share the lies: It’s been long said that women “forget” the pain of childbirth and this forgetting is what makes women persevere and choose to go through the entire experience once again. It’s referred to as many things, my personal favorite is “momnesia,” and it’s complete and utter bullshit. It may very well be the [...]
Who Exactly Got Trained?
Share the lies: Girls are easier, they said. Second children learn from the first and WANT to be potty trained, they said. Lies. All filthy, disgusting lies.

Age is just a Number
Share the lies: Kids know how old they are, sometimes down to the day. If you ask Charlie how old he is, he’ll say “I’m four years and seven months old! My birthday is in August!” If he had any concept of time, I’m sure he’d be happy to announce that today he is four [...]

I’m a Flithy, Filthy Liar. Are You?
Share the lies: I give you three characters: Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny & the Tooth Fairy. In my house, it is perfectly acceptable to behave as though these magical beings are indeed real, and not mommy and daddy performing magical surprises while our dear ones sleep.

Wow. That USED to be Sexy.
Share the lies: Remember the good ole days before kids? Those days when you were only responsible for the fun of you and your significant other? Once upon a time, there were sights and sounds that you could associate with that fun! With sexy results! Oh boy, how times have changed. Think about formerly sexy [...]
Wrestling Alligators
Share the lies: Can someone please explain to me how little people are So. Friggin. Strong? I have been physically outmatched by my troublesome two since they were about six months old.
