Random confession #4

[Jengerbread88]

I let my son cry in his car seat today instead of picking him up to comfort him, because we had a school appointment at 2 and the lady I was meeting with didn't show up until 2:45... I let him scream during our appointment, because it frustrated her. And for the record, I immediately went to the car and held him for awhile afterwards until he calmed down. He wasn't hungry or wet or anything... just fussy- it had been a long day and we're usually not out that long...

I unearthed a Reeses' in the crisper drawer in the fridge where we keep the veggies and things. I waited until the kids went out to play before I got it out and ate part of it. They came back in unexpectedly so I snuck it back to the kitchen and hid it back in the drawer under the bag of lettuce.

I've done that a few times. Amazing how a crying baby or screaming toddler suddenly improves the speed of service.

I was exhausted after dropping my son off at practice at 7:30 this morning. So I took a nap. I got up late for pickup (oops!) and got there a little late. Only like 10 minutes and he's 14 and with Coaches. Oh well, I'm still exhausted (med I'm on) so I'm going back to bed NOW lol.
