I was sitting at the doctor's office yesterday flipping through a Parenting magazine when I came across an advertisement for a new book called, Sh*t My Kids Ruined. They were nice and used the * for the i, but I figured I would just spell it out like it is.... SHIT, SHIT, SHIT... okay, not nice. I know.
Of course I fell instantly in love with the title, and although I haven't read the book, I bet it is hilarious. Any parent can relate to it. My first thought after reading about the book was, what a great baby shower gift this would make!
Then I got to thinking, and I even posed the question to my husband, "Have our kids ever really ruined anything of ours that was important?" Honestly, we couldn't recall anything major. I mean, they have spilled crap on the couches, tracked mud onto the carpet, spit up on our clothes, and minor things like that, but I don't recall anything too terribly bad. I suppose those things are to be expected. I am thinking we have been very fortunate.
I then decided to do a web search for 'Shit my kids ruined' and I came across a website titled exactly that. It seems that the book evolved out of an existing website that featured things ... AKA- 'shit'... that kids have totally screwed up. A few of the favorite pics I clicked on were the kid and the Nutella incident, buttering the lamp, and the glittering of the couch. To see other fun pictures, check out the website http://www.shitmykidsruined.com/ . I had fun scrolling through some of the pics.
What about you, have your kids ruined anything?

Well I am not a mother but I am an Auntie and sadly my beautiful nieces have DESTROYED many things in my presence or once I have left the house after an afternoon of crafting or manicures. Last Christmas was the worst though.
Every December 23rd I babysit my nieces so that their parents can have the day to tie up loose ends. We make gingerbread houses and I paint their nails for Christmas. Well last year I forgot the nail polish remover at home and there was non to be found at their house. I picked up a small bottle on the way over and decided to leave it there for them to keep in their makeup kits for next time. Well apparently the oldest decided to change her nail color herself the next morning before her parents woke up and spilled the ENTIRE BOTTLE on the table removing the finish on the table, some on the chairs, and the hardwood floors in the kitchen!!
Needless to say we do manicures in the basement where its ceramic tile and I take the nail polish remover home from now on.
Those are both great stories! Thanks for sharing. The 'joys' of little ones. :-)
