It's time for a Mom Confession -- because, let's face it, we're real mothers and sometimes it doesn't work the way the parenting books say it should.

This Week's Confession:

I accidentally left my toddler at church. I thought my mom had her, my mom thought I had her, so she was left. The people at church watched her but I felt so bad! — anonymous

What is it about Twilight? What makes middle-aged women swoon over this teenage romance?

For me, it's the perfect combination of romance and fantasy. Other CafeMoms weigh in on why they love Twilight:

After seeing Twilight, I came out of the movie theater very disappointed. That was not the case with New Moon. The film was incredibly loyal to the books, and I found myself knowing many of the lines because they were straight from the book's text.

Every year for both Thanksgiving and Christmas, my mom would dress my sister and I up in what she called our "special holiday dresses."

Oh how I hated that. I was such a little tomboy and the idea of putting on itchy tights and a bow that never stayed in place made me quite the holiday Grinch (at least until it was time to eat Thanksgiving dinner or open presents).

Though I'm pretty sure there's no way the shows today can top the Friends Thanksgiving episodes, I'm still pretty excited to see what they have in store.

We're joining Kim (aka wntg1grl), a stay-at-home mom of three who's expecting twins, on her exciting journey from bump-to-babies. Check back every week for the latest developments.

Who's ready for a Twilight party? I am!! To get us through this last day before the movie is finally released, some of the Twilight groups here on CafeMom are celebrating with Twilight parties!

I got overly excited when I went into my neighborhood Starbucks the other day and saw that the holiday drinks have returned.

Yesss! Nothing says "Happy Holidays" like a grande peppermint white chocolate mocha...with whip.

What would Twilight be without Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner? Would Bella be as good of a "Bella Swan" and would Edward be able to live up to the "Edward Cullen" in the books?

In my opinion, some of the best episodes of Friends were the Thanksgiving-themed ones.
