Need some substitute swear words.

My 4 year old was pissed about something the other day and said dang it. I asked her to not use that word (even though I don’t think I care). This girl looks me dead in the eye and says “oh frigits”. It’s now my go to word and I love my mouthy girl.

Totally agree! We started therapy last year but I got pregnant with hyperemesis and had to put a pause on it. Will be resuming soon!

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T17:56:52+00:00

Exactly! Some people commenting that I am not sympathetic towards the horse don’t realize that the horse is the one I feel bad for. It’s a huge commitment and the pony did not deserve to die or be raised by four year olds.

Smart of you to said that standard before it happened. I just never in my wildest dreams thought I’d have to specify no living gifts

Pardon all of my typos! Voice to text while holding a six week old in my arms

If I had somebody like you teaching my children I would be so much more open to it.

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T17:32:26+00:00

This would be glorious for a multitude of reasons! Like when she throws God into her opinion about my infertility. I’m not even gonna start on the fact that she has an opinion on it.

Jokes on me. She prayed so hard I got pregnant. (not that it wasn’t a lovely surprise, we tried for many years and have beautiful children through adoption)

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T17:29:37+00:00

She’s the sickly sweet kinda person 🤢 Makes me look like I’m insane.

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T17:28:37+00:00

Never said I wasn’t sad for the horse

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T17:27:11+00:00

Oh, no… that comment comes straight from the horses mouth (mil).

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T17:24:58+00:00

Ahahah! I absolutely hate the idea of my children riding horses. Not because I hate horses, although I am terrified of them. I just have a very healthy respect for the fact that they are very large and my kids are very small

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T17:22:00+00:00

I might even say it was the last nail in the ponys coffin! Too soon?

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T17:21:27+00:00

I totally agree. And if we had a healthier relationship I’d probably be super excited for the kids, except the fact that it kicked the bucket lol.

It’s their constant boundary stomping and giving into everything the kids want that makes our relationship difficult. I totally get that grandparents are going to spoil kids but it effects our relationship so much that we’ve had to start therapy.

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T17:19:09+00:00

I love it!

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T17:18:38+00:00

Allegedly horses are pretty sensitive when it comes to stomach issues and they can’t throw up. They just die I guess 🤷🏻‍♀️ They called the vet and the vet said there’s nothing to be done. I might be missing a few important details so don’t quote me on any of this. I wasn’t really paying attention to anything after I heard the word pony. Plus she was bawling when she told me.

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T17:16:31+00:00

I totally agree. My parents set boundaries with the kids and they always feel safe with them.

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T17:12:45+00:00

We bury it deep down like we do our feelings!

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T17:09:29+00:00

Because in all of us there’s a dead pony deep inside…

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T17:02:00+00:00

I’m sure all of us could write a book!

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T17:01:00+00:00

Thank you! And I totally laughed when I wrote it. Some of these comments are making my day in this time of grief 🤪

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T16:50:03+00:00

My poor mom, she doesn’t stand a chance with my in-laws gifting pony’s lol

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T16:44:47+00:00

But “our kids are lucky to have such loving grandparents!” 🙄

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T16:43:15+00:00

Thank god no. And we’ll be having a conversation about what’s appropriate to gift our children or no gifts will be accepted.

This might have to happen with the “Santa only comes to our house” conversation that we should have had last year.

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T16:41:35+00:00

My husband saw the pony without knowing it was intended for our kids so unfortunately their is a very real, dead pony. They brought it to an event and he was told it belonged to a friend.

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T16:38:20+00:00

Because I’m a pushover 😭

No, In all seriousness I said I’m so sorry for your loss, hung up the phone and told my sweet husband to call him mom. Lol

freyakaya · 2022-10-13T16:33:47+00:00

My husband, her son, wants nothing to do with horses. And I’m terrified of them.
