So Not a MILF

I have come to the realization that I am not a cool, hip, with-it mom.  I'm just... not.

When my daughter is twelve, she is not going to raid my closet, looking for something fabulous to wear to the middle school dance.

My son isn't going to struggle with embarrassment as a teen because he has a MILF for a mom, because the only one on the planet who remotely considers me a MILF is his DILF.

My ears are only pierced once.  I have no other piercings.  I barely remember to change my earrings...

I don't have a tattoo.  Anywhere.  That little pink spot above my knee is a birthmark and it has been there since, well, birth.

If tattoos and piercings are your thing, go for it!  They're just not my thing.

And right now?   I've got a lovely allergies-turned-cold thang going on.  Which means that unless you think it's sexy for your woman to sleep with Vicks under her nose, I'm not your woman.

But yeah, maybe it's because I'm ancient to have a five-year-old and three-year-old, but I'm definitely NOT going to be the mom all the kids want to be.  I think I'm OK with that.  But shoot me now if I start watching CBS for any reason...

I'm so not into current fashion either. I'm usually either in shorts and a tank top or capris and a t-shirt wit flip flops. Hair usually tied back in a ponytail and very little make-up (mascara and lip gloss, at the most). I'm no one's MILF either, trust me. And I"m okay with it, too!!!!

See, that's a good thing - less embarrassment for the kids! And heaven knows, kids find enough to be embarrassed about on their own without having to add additional items!
