Mom Blog: written by a teacher-mom, but not just for moms- a blog for everyone: baby shower

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! ~~or maybe not.~~ The title alone is enough to make any new mom a tad scared. Actually, it would be a fun conversation starter at a baby shower.

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. ~~Knock on wood!~~

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?
