My first child refused to nurse. (Great opening line, huh?) My mom had sent me my collection of BSC books so I read them while I was pumping. I was missing a bunch and in my curiosity to know the later plotlines, I stumbled across some grade A snarks. Soon I was hooked. I finally thought that I had read enough snarks and that I'm a sarcastic enough person to think I could snark a bit and put it on a blog I really wanted to look at these books from a parental perspective, because I know a lot of snarkers out there aren't parents and it puts a different spin on things once you are. I posted my first post and instantly knew I wasn't going to be able to keep up with it, so I asked my other mommy friends (who are also very sarcastic...irony...) if they wanted to help me out. And so, we have the blog. Another friend of ours is going to be joining soon; you'll meet Tess in the next snark.
A bit about me. I'm the youngest of 5 by a lot, so I babysat nieces and nephews when I was a kid. (Sidebar: I'm going to be a great aunt in December and I just turned 30 last week. YIKES!). I used to teach; in my experiences, I have taught preschool through 8th grade at some point in time. Because of my teaching experiences, I decided to stay home when we had children. So I now stay at home with our girls and there are days where I wish the BSC did exist so that I could go to the grocery store without having to worry about buckling two kids in carseats, unbuckling two kids in carseats, loading two kids into a cart, keeping one kid out of the purse and the other from destroying the aisle displays...you get the idea.
