I know that no one is perfect but sometimes I can’t help but get a little down on myself. I feel like I keep making dumb mistakes when it comes to taking care of my little one.
Today, for instance, I was shopping for a few things for my daughter and she was fussy and irritable the whole time. I couldn’t figure out why but after a while it hit me that she was simply tired. Tired. Why didn’t I just check the time? I would have seen it was clearly time for her nap.
Sometimes I get wrapped up in whatever activity we’re doing and I don’t feed her lunch until way too late. Or I let her laundry pile up. I should be much more vigilant about her hand washing considering all of the germs going around now. I should also be better about putting sunscreen on her. Her new car seat doesn’t have a cover so her face is in the sun when we drive now – why didn’t I think about that and figure something out before I installed it?
What is wrong with me!?!
