Oh my stars. Have you ever had a moment when you've questioned
everything you've ever done as a parent??
I had one of those moments yesterday.
Yesterday, we went to a pool party with a bunch of our Young
Living friends. It was the most gorgeous backyard...perfectly landscaped with a
rock waterfall built-in that all of the kids were loving launching themselves
off of. The owners own a landscaping company, and it showed in the impeccably
designed yard. In fact, I took this photo when we got there to slap on my dream
board.
So halfway through the event, most everyone there was in the
pool, chatting and having a great time....and suddenly, I hear Sean say,
"BEC...!!!!" And I look over to see the son-who-shall-not-be-named
with his pants pulled down, casually watering the perfect landscaping,
oblivious to everyone. Oh yes. And he was FACING the pool. Full frontal.
I've never scrambled out of a pool so fast in my life. I want
slosh/running over to my proudly peeing child, and quickly tucked him back
away. Then he pulled it back out because he wanted to finish.
Y'all....this.is.my.life. In all of it's glory.
I now need to tape this photo to my dream board with a little
post-it note on the side that says, "where everyone keeps their pants
on."
As a mom of two boys, ages 5 and 3, I totally get it! Mine like to walk out of the public bathroom stalls before pulling up their pants completely. It's a work in progress! Haha.
