I don't think I like that person very much. Being a nag sucks, but seriously, how else are you supposed to produce kids who will brush their teeth?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09647903559957741454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7734712521038551440.post-88164191587114566572014-11-25T04:15:01.335-05:002014-11-25T04:15:01.335-05:00Sometimes I feel as though everyone else has used ...Sometimes I feel as though everyone else has used by brain to think/find things/ etc for them, that by the time I want to do something it's just too tired so all I get is duuuurrrr...then guilt the next day co I still haven't remembered to do whatever!

Natalie will usually decide to pee right before we leave, and she takes forever. She's all, "Don't RUSH me! It's RUDE! Give me my PRIVACY!"
