Kat, your podcast was timely and great wisdom for me today! Thank you for being “real” about your grumpy days! I actually open windows and/or doors when we’re at home, to keep me accountable in my attitude toward my kiddos on my bad days! Terrible, but honest ; )
Melissa,
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! And I don’t think that’s terrible at all. It shows what a great mom you are – you know yourself and you’re doing whatever it takes to be a great mom!
That was a great podcast.. I’ll have to make sure to remember to come back here to hear all your lovely tips when I have a “grumpy” day
Much love
Renee
Listened to this yesterday on the tail end of a terrible day. So timely and yet such simple advice. I will be listening again, and taking notes so I can remember it all. Love your line, “Your a Mom, your kind of a big deal, now go be awesome.” Made me cry yesterday.
Once again, great reminders!! It’s almost like you’re sitting here talking to me. :p
I’m so sad we weren’t able to ACTUALLY sit and have coffee when I was over on the left coast last summer. Someday…
Thank you Kat!
This was a much needed topic! I admire your honesty and willingness to be genuine. It is refreshing to hear that other moms feel things like grumpy, over-critical etc…Thank you for not only being honest but for your willingness to work hard to be the best for your kids! I am inspired! Thank you!
Just wanted to say thank you for this. I listened to this the day before I was terrible sick with a sinus infection and headache and I’m in my third trimester….so yeah. This week was pretty bad for me. But, since I had JUST heard this I knew how to handle me being all grouchy-pants and handle my boys on their off-day from preschool (which was yesterday). So a HUGE thank you for this podcast! You rock, girl! Keep it up! I love your blog, podcasts, and you!!!
I have listened to this podcast at least 4 times. I was beyond encouraged by your authenticity about “grumpy mommy” b/c the devil tries so hard to make me believe the lie that I am the only one that is like this. But even more so, to hear you describe yourself as justice-oriented & tendency to nit-pick was so good for me–THAT IS ME and I didn’t even realize it! Thanks so much for the incredibly PRACTICAL 8 Point Plan!! You are soooo AWESOME and I am so much better as a mom b/c of your ministry here!!
[…] mornings. No really. Because then you can put your kid down for a nap and listen to podcasts like How To Be a Good Mom on a Bad Day and How To Make Your Kids Forget You’re Mean and you can have the lovely Kat Lee tell you that […]
One of my favorites. Such great and simple ideas! Thank you.
