I don't take nearly enough pictures of my DC'ren
We don't do much crafts
They watch more TV than they should
I yell sometimes

She seems amazing and I wish I had half her energy!

She also seems to have so many friends and family members. I want to go live with her and spend time at the beach with her family! My family is small and friends have moved away and we have lost touch :([/quote]

I am not even looking at the site.  Do not compare yourself to others.  Make a SHORT list of anything you want to change about your parenting (3 things MAX) and work on one.  Focus on today.  Moment to moment.  Is it that you need to get organized?  Is it anger?  It is that you need to plan something for yourself?  Do you need exercise/sleep/better diet?  Move in THAT direction.  There are professionals of every stripe to help you, some free, some not.  There are websites and books.  Not to mention, you probably have friends and family who will help.

If you feel like a crappy mom, make SMALL steps in a direction that makes you feel competent and hopeful.  THAT is being a good mom.  Crafts, pics....that's all window dressing.[/quote]
