Well, we started off the first day of the school year with a snake in our back yard as we started our walk to school. You might notice the snake is dead. No, I'm not SuperMom. SuperMom would have picked that snake up, given everyone a turn to pet it, then beautifully released it into the wild. Instead, as Emmett is telling me the snake is so cute and he just needs his mommy, I'm running for the axe. I chopped that thing right in half and blood and guts squirted out everywhere. The kids just stared...Emmett trying not to cry. Yep, that's the kind of mom I am...definitely not SuperMom-but can I at least be the no-guts-no-glory-mom.
