Sometimes (or a lot of times) I do stupid things. Like let a 3 year old use scissors... I think the problem is I assume him and Henry can do the same things. Wyatt communicates so well and I just lump him with Henry and move on. So, the other day, I let him use Henry's kid scissors (at least I didn't give him adult scissors!). I was at my laptop doing some work and noticed it had gotten a little quiet. I thought I should double check, so I peeked out and he is snipping his pajamas with the scissors. I wish I could have gotten a picture of him actually doing it. It would scare you. Please don't judge.
We had a good talk about how we use scissors... his privileges were removed (and if there were parent police, they would have removed mine too!), and we tucked the pj's away in his memory box. Of course, I told him we had to take a picture so Daddy could see what he had done. When I asked him what he was doing, he sheepishly looked at me and said, "I not know." Like... oh no... is this going to be good or bad? Is this really a 'Don't Ask Don't Tell' post when I'm the one who should be held responsible??

| *asleep for his nap... finally* And don't worry, my safety patrol husband told me the lights weren't safe. We have made the necessary changes :) |

Don't be too hard on yourself - every honest Mom will admit that at some time she's given her children the wrong thing at the wrong time :) It makes for a great blog post. Hope you had a great birthday. love you
Oh Michelle, trust me, this won't be the last!! Love your posts!! Also love the "man cave" bedroom with the lights! Wyatt looks pretty comfy...even has the arms behind his head pose down!!
