Dont Tread On Me
Lets learn from each others mistakes.
Two weeks ago, I forgot West's lunch for school. He doesnt get the school lunch everyday, I just looked at the wrong date on the calendar and didnt make him one. The school called me, and luckily they had an extra so they fed him. Talk about feeling like a bad father.
Then yesterday morning I drop him off at school, and his teachers ask if he's doing "Splash Day"? I'm like "yeah, of course", I think Splash Day is thrusday and its only wednesday. WRONG!!! So luckily he had an extra pair of shorts at the school that he could wear but he didnt have his swim trunks, a towel, or sunscreen.
Jeeze, I'm banging it up lately.
Then I had just read this on CNN on Tuesday.
9 things you shouldn't say to your child

-'Leave me alone!'
-'You're so...'
-'Don't cry'
-'Why can't you be more like your .....?'
-'You know better than that!'
-'Stop or I'll give you something to cry about!'
-'Wait till daddy gets home!'
-'Hurry up!'
-'Great job!" or "Good girl!'
Come on I have said all of those things in one way shape or form. I know I'm not going to mess him up, or even mess Parker up, but they sure make you feel bad/guilty/poor parent when you botch something up on them.
