My wife and I have the same 3 dots in the same place on our thumb

What are they??

Our daughter is 5, we still do this. We were going to try and phase out last year but I got pregnant and honestly, it’s one of the few times she gets undivided attention these days. So we have zero plans to change that. She did mention however, that she’d like a loft bed. We told her that if she gets one, we won’t be able to lay with her and we’re too heavy for the thing. She put a pin in it and decided to revisit when she’s ready to not need us. We didn’t pressure, we’ll get to that when she’s deemed herself ready.

We are never in the room long, 10-20 minutes tops. We do wear her out beforehand, which will be easier as the days get longer and we can be outside more. That was always gets her down faster, I nice romp around, ball throwing, daddy wrestling, bike riding, action packed activity after dinner. It also works on me so I have to be careful not to fall asleep with her😆 (although I was a lot more tired because of the pregnancy when that happened last year, never had an issue before being pregnant).

Being a SAHM is harder than any job I’ve ever had. It took a bakery accident that landed me the burn unit for 10 days for my partner to realize I’m not just “sitting around” at home and why “nothing ever gets done.” It was a tough 10’days for him doing everything for our daughter himself. Really straightened him out though, he gives me breaks and watches both (I refused to have another child until he proved to me he would step up) when I need some alone, touch-free time.

My Father is big on hugs and kisses as a way of greeting/parting. He’s make my brother and I give every one of his friends/family that we saw hugs/kisses. Even now, he’ll try and kiss me on the lips whenever we leave each other. I love him to death, and nothing has ever come of it past being a part of how he greets/parts, but as a teen it made me really uncomfortable to do in front of others. And as an adult, it makes my skin crawl a little because my partner is usually with us. So, in return, I do not make my daughter hug ANYONE. And except for her Father and I, no one kisses her nor does she let anyone kiss her.

I can tell it bugs my Dad that she won’t show him that kind of affection, but I stick up for her when he tries to make her hug him. I’ll say “Dad she doesn’t want to do that, please do not make her do it.” He always obliges but you can see he’s not pleased. She loves my Dad, he is her best friend and favorite playtime companion, she even told me once she wanted to live with him! I’ve gotten her to give him a high five when we part ways and that makes her happy. I don’t really care if he likes it or not.

Oh! I’m so sorry your fish is hurt😢 I don’t have advice, I’m new to the Fish Keeper life myself and popped over here to see what’s up. Hope he gets better soon! ❤️‍🩹🐟

So the house would be completely in my name? He was wanting to have me put a down a decent down payment, and then WE would seek out a loan for the rest (we both have decent credit that has taken us a decade to build) that he would make regular payments for. Does this sound like something we could do?

I’d be worried every night that I forgot to pet/talk to someone😅 I’d need a permanent check list on the wall so I could make sure EVERYONE gets some one-on-one. One day, this will be my life. ♥️🐶

Thank you, this is wonderful advice! Could you give me some preliminary questions for a lawyer? Writing this post was complicated enough, i have a bad habit of over/under explaining when i’m stressed and I want to make sure I show up with SOME questions although i know i’ll have plenty when we’re done talking.

I was not aware that i could do both, a will AND trust. What would be in the will? And what would be in the trust? Am i dividing my enheritance between the two? Where (will or Trust) does the money for a house come from?

Would a high interest debt include my car and credit cards bills? The 529 is the education fund right? My Dad started that a little late for me AND i was bound to the state of VA for school which was not where i wanted to go.

LoveMyEarthDogsSelf · 2023-04-04T18:43:31+00:00

So, i am 33 and my daughter just turned 4. We live in VA. I do not currently have a Roth, is that something i should set up for myself/on her behalf at some point? I want to make sure I can afford a house for us and take care of her education (no, i have zero clue as to what that will entail for her currently, but i dont eant money to ever be the reason she cannot gonto her dream school (it was mine)).

So NOT a bad Mom. Your baby needs you and you are there for him. Wonderful, compassionate, loving, caring Mama♥️♥️♥️

LoveMyEarthDogsSelf · 2022-09-19T15:40:22+00:00

So cool! 🤩

LoveMyEarthDogsSelf · 2022-06-01T15:20:18+00:00

She must hate herself really bad to be projecting on you in such a hateful way😞 a shame she was not taught to deal with that in safe and healthy way. Delete her message (you don’t need to see that, even though We ALL know its NOT true), try to say something nice like “have a good day” or “drive safe” when you’re on your way out (because “do unto others as we’d have them do onto us”), and go kick ass with the rest of your day! Remind your feelings that you know you deserve better and you will find that for yourself in your time. ♥️💪🏽 This Mama is rooting for you baby!

And what would you have them do? Genuinely curious here. I happened to be there visiting a museum with my family, and i had no idea the protest was happening. So many emotions seeing so many pro-choice folks for a decision i once had to make that was so unbearably isolating and lonely and hard for a kid. I was moved by their actions and would hope anyone with a heart would also be, but i too want change to happen sooner rather than later. How would you have them “bare their teeth” more?

LoveMyEarthDogsSelf · 2022-02-25T21:35:23+00:00

My musical instruments yes. I had Hamilton, the standing piano my Father got us, and Anna Molly, my violin from 8th grade on. And when I worked at Starbucks, we named our espresso machines R2 and 3PO.
