#MomConfessionMonday. I’m making this a real thing, friends! I have a million mom confessions that I could share, which makes me think that you probably do too. So, let’s share. Share the crazy, share the love, share the little white lies we tell our babies (and for good reason), share what gets you through the long days. Just so you get the gist of what I’m thinking, here are a few of my own confessions for your enjoyment. Enjoyment, not judgement 🙂
I HATE bath time. If it wasn’t a necessity, I would skip it. Actually, to get real, sometimes I do skip it. Not enough that it’s unsanitary, obviously, but enough that I don’t
do it every day.
I’m really bad at remembering to change sheets. Gasp! I literally have to set a reminder in my phone for every two weeks, just so I remember to do it. Even then, sometimes it gets stretched to 2.5 weeks. Ugh.
Now that it’s darker outside earlier in the evening, I put my kids to bed 30 minutes earlier and lie about the time. I’m holding onto this one until my oldest learns to tell time…
Yikes. Now that I’m actually putting these confessions to paper I realize that there are SO many more I could share. Am I proud? Not really. But am I ashamed either? Nope. Do you have a confession to share? Well, I know you do, but do you have a confession that you are WILLING to share? Three ways to do so…
- Comment below!
- If you’re feeling really brave, comment on today’s Mommy Diatribes Facebook post and get the conversation started.
- If you would rather remain anonymous, send your confession to MommyDiatribes@gmail.com.
I’ll compile my favorite Mom Confessions into a blog post to be shared Monday, November 6th. The purpose of Mom Confession Monday is to create an outlet, a safe place, a place to support one another. Only rule? Keep it clean, ladies. Although, my confession about skipping bath isn’t exactly clean, you know what I mean.
Remember, whatever your confession may be, I can guarantee you aren’t the only one.

Oh this really made me also realize I have a lot!! The sheets thing is definitely an issue…I hate changing the sheets especially since they have about 5 million toys in their beds. It’s the last thing I want to do at the end of the night or early am.
Another thing is if a toy is broken or something has missing parts I will randomly find it and it goes in the trash. They look for it and I tell them they must have lost it 😬 not proud of this one but they have way too many things and they often quickly move onto another toy so I’m hoping they don’t catch on. I really am also just tired of picking up all the small parts of games and toys that I find in the most random places of the house.
Amy! The toys! That is amazing. I’m sure I’ve done it too. Thanks for reading and sharing a confession 🙂
