The nurses must have loved the explanation. LOL. Well, I can safely say, without any reservation, that I would have done the same exact thing. Not that it matters... but it's great to see other not so perfect moms shouting out their fabulous stories. <abbr><em>Sugar Jones’s last blog post..<a href="http://blog.sugarjones.tv/2009/02/11/love-is-in-the-air-or-something-corny-like-that.aspx?ref=rss" rel="nofollow">Love Is In The Air... or something corny like that</a></abbr></em> I love that you added in that a Tib Fib is commonly associated with child abuse.

The thing about my girls is they are always hurt, always whining, crying and screaming. The thing about me is I have no tolerance for whining, crying and screaming. I am also a huge fan of the suck-it-up club. So, I ignore whining like it doesn't exist. I mostly ignore crying because I find that just as annoying. I have begun now to ignore screaming. Even the 'help me god there really is a wolf' screaming. I have already had the 'my tummy hurts' blow-off that results in spewing in very public places and the 'she really did hurt me this time' blow-off that later is confirmed with a fucking chunk of eyeball material floating around under the eyelid. I'm positive that one day there will be a broken bone. Probably I will make one of them walk around for a week, vacuum and put away the groceries with that broken or fractured bone before it gets the attention it needs. I've accepted that. CPS can bite me. I say revel in your cinnamon rolls for their mere existence proves that you are rocking this Mommy Dearest gig. <abbr><em>AmyAnne’s last blog post..<a href="http://parentingwithducttape.blogspot.com/2009/02/on-being-contest-slut.html" rel="nofollow">On Being a Contest Slut</a></abbr></em> I have girls.
