Letters to Random People
Dear Guy in Front of Barnes & Noble,When there is a pregnant mother with three well behaved girls trying to getting all of her kids and the double wide stroller out the front entrance and another mom helping her says that "I know having 3 can be a handful." the appropriate thing to say is NOT "it doesn't have to be, you just need to be more aggressive." I mean, COME ON. The girls were being good! What did you want her to do beat the oldest (5 years old at the most) into pushing the younger two in the stroller out the door while mom held it? Give me a break. You apparently never had kids or have long ago forgotten what is was like. In either case, I'm glad you weren't MY father.
Sincerely,
A pissed off mother of three who thinks you should have kept you trap shut!
Dear Wal-Mart people,
Today I realized why at times I'm tempted to call the store Voldemort. Having the normal set of restrooms at the front of the store and the "family restroom" at the back is kinda inconvenient. Having a sign by the normal one DOES NOT help. I will take my 6 year old son into the regular women's bathroom because by the time we would get to the "family restroom" in the back he would have peed his pants.
Sincerely,
A mother who didn't want to have to deal with pee.
Dear Online Gamers,
Just because you are online does not give you license to be total asses to other people. And when you say "I really am a great person in real life" I doubt it. I feel that the anonymity that the Internet gives brings out the true colors of a person. Those are your true colors you are showing when you are being a jerk.
Sincerely,
A mother who gets sick of teens and adults acting like 3 year olds.
Dear Kind Person,
Thank you so much for finding and returning my mothers ATM card to her bank. How thoughtful of you to realize that the bank has the only people that would have her number to call to tell her it was found.
Sincerely,
Someone who needed to be reminded that there are other good people out there.
Dear Blogspot,
What up with having two titles at the top of this post?!
Sincerely,
A confused blogger.

I like those, and totally agree with the stupid Walmart bathrooms. =)
Thanks for voicing my appreciation about the honest soul who returned my ATM card to my bank :)
I take my boys into the women's bathroom with me all the time. They're still too little to have it matter whether it's a boys bathroom or a girls bathroom. I am NOT sending my 4-year-old into a men's bathroom by himself, thank you very much.
I didn't even know that there is a family-style restroom at the back of Wal-Mart! That makes no sense at all... How amazing that someone returned your mom's debit card to the bank. I accidentally left my card in the ATM two years ago, and the dude that used the ATM after me took advantage, withdrawing $200 out of my account. That couldn't have been more devastating. I'm glad to know that there are decent people out there. Barnes and Noble needs an automatic sliding door. A big one. And that dude sucks. I'm surprised you didn't tell him to shut up! Because you've got moxy. Maybe a nice, glowering, crusty look did the trick with him.
