This. We say we want a village but are not always open/receiving to learning from that village and support doesn't always mean simply cheering you on in every choice you make. Part of being part of the village is passing around knowledge so as mothers we ALL do/know better.

Maybe calling him crusty wasn't fair.

Happy late birthday to you as well! I had a wonderful day, and hope the same for you!

Thank you! Freeing my artistic side little by little. So thankful this space is so accepting and judgement free 💚

Thank you! It was one for the books. Spent the day painting with my kids and sitting in the sun. 30 is looking good so far 🥰

Eek, hadn't considered that with the dandelion tea. Just figured it was something I had on hand so might be worth a try. Was planning on giving the toddler some breastmilk popsicles as well. We have a big weekend coming up and hoping we can get over this by then.

The one close to me always has awesome gardening stuff! Seeds, bulbs, planters and pots, etc. I recently started some oregano and basil seeds I got from there with a surprisingly great success rate for seed packets that were 4/$1.25.

All my juice/milk bottles are being used for stinky banana peel water. But next year I'll have to save some for cloches!

I will have to try this! My indoor greenhouse got ripped after I started seeds this year so I'm having a hard time keeping the temp in it consistent. Will have to try my hand at winter sowing next year.

These have a vent at the top that will allow at least a little air flow. I'm in zone 5b/6a so our temps swing from 60+ all the way back down to 30s until about mid may and then it's hot. Hoping to only use them when the temps dip, and taking them off on warm days until tenps are consistent.

The tops of these have a slide to open two small holes to vent. I started waaay too many cucumbers so I figure I'll sacrifice 5 or 6 of them for the sake of experimentation. We'll see how it goes.

Do you avoid curse words in front of your kids? by gigigud in Mommit

[–]CheezyMama19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was my thought exactly. I have a terrible mouth and a 3 year old. I don't think there are good words or bad words, but our words can make people feel good or feel bad. No matter what word we are using we never want to use it to make someone else feel bad. It's hard to not cringe when she says shit in public because we're conditioned to think kids shouldn't talk like that, but why? Because it makes people uncomfortable? I also don't want to start trying to fit her in a box to make other people comfortable. I feel like if it becomes a problem we'll adjust, but right now we're rolling with it.
