Disclaimer

In going forward, I would like to add that I know that I am lucky. All of my three children are healthy and developing normally and my husband is a great guy. Even the dog has her good points (on most days!). So I wouldn't want anyone to think I don't know that and think of it everyday. Still there are days (a lot of days) where a little venting is required. I send many kudos to every mother struggling out there with any myriad of problems with their families that I don't have to deal with. I will devote some of my venting to them as they probably don't get the opportunity to do so on a regular basis!
