P.S.

Just FYI: I recognize the high crazy factor in the last post.  People with two or more kids surely know that it's totally kimpossible to focus on one kid all the time.  Or focus on anything, ever, really.

I may be guilting out and wondering how much attention is enough attention (or possibly too much attention, honestly) because my own mom so had it together as a mom -- she packed our lunches every single day, like, through high school; did our laundry; cooked a kick-ass dinner every night; kept her monthly budget on the fridge (clean lines for the rows and columns drawn with a ruler); was, all around, the picture of assured competence.  Maybe she didn't feel like she had it together, and I'm sure it was far more of a challenge than she ever let on, but my mom mommed like Ginger Rogers danced: she did it backwards and in heels and made it look easy.
