Response

I just HAVE to share this.

My mom receives my blog posts in her email

and responded to my latest about a certain 3 yr old I know.

That story reminds me of this little girl I knew--she was about the same age.--maybe a year younger.

I was walking in the mall with her and she decided she did not want to sit in the stroller-so I let her

walk next to it holding on. It was only one of those umbrella strollers.

Anyway, I'm not sure what upset this little girl but she started screaming and crying and took the stroller, full of shopping bags, and tipped it right over.

As I was picking it up a woman came up to me and said "Can't you control your child?"

I simply replied "No, I cannot."

Rachel, sometimes the apple doesn't fall far from the tree!

This should make me happy-I told myself it would make me happy all those years ago- I wished for it.

But--I feel for you and it does not make me happy Damn It!!!

love, mom

Aw, I love you mom!

I'm sorry for being a PITA (Pain In The Apple) most of the time at times.

And I'm sorry for constantly walking in the bathroom when you were in there.

These kids do it now and that WAS my only 5 seconds of peace.

But, you have given me hope.

They too will have to share the bathroom with their children at all times!

Thank goodness!!
