@brent, @jason: Not only does the photo exist, but there were a bunch of other similar ones. Yes, this world is a worse place because of Flickr.com.

@Mother Shaffer: High-five! Think about this: If the kids never came along, wouldn’t you be waaayyy less distracted? I mean, sure, you’d still make mistakes, but they’d come in the form of too many drinks and situations where your morals cave. Those are the GOOD kind of problems to have.

Cool, so can I also blame my kid for my genetic defects, bad career choices and careless credit card spending? Phew, that’s a load off my mind. Thanks Father!

i don’t think my life would be complete if photo 2 didn’t exist.

i can’t believe the second photo actually exists. i’m praying that is photoshopped.

I have blamed my kids for my period, bloatedness, and blotchy skin. So now it’s good to know I can extend the blame to other failures from my past…like that weird encounter in the back of a van around 1991. Love your site!

let’s see, i was skinny, had hair and was getting tail pretty consistently before i had my kids. now all of that has changed. i think they actually are too blame for everything.
