I don't know how they do it. They wake up before the roosters have a chance to roll outta bed and start crowing, they snap their fingers and coffee and lunches are made all in one swoop. They have the perfect outfit with the perfect hair. A clean car. A clean and organized house. They even have time for PTA and every after school activity known to man. Oh! And to top it all off, they somehow hold down this magical full time job that allows time for all of this. I have come to the conclusion that these women are either doing some sort of super drug or they are not single.
You see. I am pretty super but I wake up and push the button on my coffee pot all by myself. I make lunches the night before and I sure as hell don't wake up before 5 am to look perfect. And not to mention that I have my two dirty, drooling, snot nosed little boys that sound something like the seagulls off the movie Finding Nemo "Mom Mom Mom" and seem to find every mud puddle in a 30 foot radius, to keep me on my toes... So that magic pill... I don't know where it is but I want one! Hell, I want 2! And while I'm placing my order I also want 8 arms, eyes in the back of my head and a clone. OH! And for CPS to look the other way when I decide to hook my children to a dog run in the front yard!

Johanna, I love your entry! Being a single mom is the ONLY form of a super mom/super hero. All others need not apply! I have been there, and it is not easy, but you do what you have to do, and they grow up in spite of us! YOU are a good mom, and I laughed at the 'dog run' part! I did that too! I had a harness for my boy, and it saved BOTH of our lives!!!
LOL! Glad you like it. I know what you mean :) Its all worth it...
