For F***'s Sake

Now kids, don't get all excited about two postings in one day (I like to keep expectations of me where they belong. LOW). But I simply had to share my agitation about the following. 

Apparently, there's a plethora of similarly-titled blogs out there, and I make no pretense that mine came first/is better. But riddle me this, why in f***'s sake would your blog include the words "reluctant housewife" in it if you were, in fact, "proud", "love being a mom" and "wouldn't change it for the world"? I call bullshit!

JesusHF***ingChrist. Last time I checked the word reluctant is defined as: 1. unwilling; disinclined, 2. struggling in opposition. 

Listing endless cupcake and quiche recipes so happily sends the wrong message. And as for writing about your kids? Unless you're drafting the script for a new "In The Motherhood" Webisode (we're all still trying to block out the show's unfortunate foray into primetime TV. Shudder), I'll do without, thank you very much.

P.S. I typed the word reluctant wrong when searching for the definition. See?! I'm even reluctant about being reluctant. 

A little less love,
June
