# 0025: Little Excuses

This post may come back to bite me one day...
Does anybody else use their kids as excuses? This girl does! ("Oh, kids are sick- we can't go." "Shoot! Kids are too tired. We'll just stay here." "What? Can't hear you! Kids are too loud and outta control today!")
Most people figure out this goldmine of excuses early on in pregnancy and master it within the first trimester. The excuses during pregnancy are as many as there are stars in the sky! You've got forgetfulness, tiredness, foggy headedness, all sorts of pains and discomforts and basically anything you do wrong you can trace back to the baby inside you. It's really nice to have such an adorable little scapegoat that no one can be mad at. Even when the guilty party arrives, you've still got pregnancy hormones! Thank goodness, because here's my opportunity to blame all of my grammatical mistakes in this blog on lingering pregnancy hormones. Sorry!
But seriously, there is some truth to that "Pregnancy Brain" stuff.


Kids make great excuses to get you out of things. I'm not saying that's the only reason to have them, I'm just saying it's reason # 0025.
