so, I was sitting down to change E's diaper (which is of course, extremely poopy) but after undoing his diaper I realize the wipes are not where they are supposed to be. I yell to Justi and ask her to please grab me the wipes. As I wait for the wipes, E is squirming and trying to escape and kicking his feet, all the while I try to keep poop from spreading. I yell "Justi, HURRY! He's wiggling!" at which point I hear her say "heads up" as a bag of wipes comes flying at me, which land on E with a thump, and then fall into his diaper. did I mention that his diaper is poopy and I've been avoiding spreading poo??
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.
