Whew....I forgot what it was to have to work all day. I actually missed my kids, and miss them again for tomorrow! It was a LONG day. I got up at 6:15 and left home about an hour later...then the mumbo jumbo overflowed my brain for 8 hours! HOLY SMOKES that was a lot to take in - it literally gave me a headache....and I'm pretty sure I haven't retained more than how to operate the phone! I got done at 5 at which time I drove home in a bunch of traffic, pretty much all the way home, in time to start cooking dinner. Stinkin commuters! bleh. ask me how I am after tomorrow...I hope stuff starts making more sense then! Now I need to find a babysitter.
Ok. So, we've talked to M about strangers a bit, telling her to be safe and what not. A couple of times she brings it up when we say no she can't do something and she says "because there are stangers?" or some such. We haven't talked about it recently, but apparently the message stuck: We were at Wal-Mart, had just finised checking out and J went to use the restroom and M wanted to get a drink from the water fountain -I was still a few steps behind, so M said "Mom will you come a little bit closer?" and I said yes, and she continued "because you wouldn't want a stranger to grab me." I smiled and said "No I wouldn't like that." And she said "You would say 'oh no! someone has taken my child!" At which point I couldn't help but laugh and tell her how much I loved her.
