So yes I am going to rat myself out! I designated myself the WORST MOTHER of the YEAR awards last night. Let me tell you what happened. First I get home and the kids wanted to go and play outside in the backyard. I figured that would be ok while I cook dinner. So I let them outside and open up the blinds so I can keep an eye on them. Well I now think it is time to put a bigger lock on the back gate. One of our neighbors came to the door and said do you know your kids are in the front yard? I said WHAT?? I said no and she said I didn't think you did, she said she didn't mean to medle(spell check) I said by no means are you medeling. I appreciate it.
So as if that isn't bad enough it gets worse! I know what could be worse than your kids playing in the front yard without any supervision!! Well while cleaning up the kitchen after dinner, Matthew came in the kitchen SCREAMING at the top of his lungs saying hurt ear, hurt ear! I said what happened trying to understand him I said did Aubrey bite you and surprisingly he said no so I asked again what happened? He calms down a tid bit and says screwdriver!! I said you put a screwdriver in your ear and he replys yes.
So calmly I said let me see where is the screwdriver? He went and got it and I went and got the phone. This is a perk of working for your pediatrician. I call him on the phone and tell him what happened and he walks me through it. Luckily I had some ear drops that I could use. After applying the ear drops he seemed to do ok. Thank goodness he slept fine and said that his ear didn't hurt this morning!
SO that is why I gave myself the WORST MOTHER OF THE YEAR award.
