Bad Mom Award

Thursday night I realized I had to go to the grocery store, so I got a late start and left to go at 9 and didn't get home tell 10. My kids saw that I got chocolate marshmellows and so instead of making them go to bed (cuz usually my kids are in bed at least by 9) I let them have a late snack. I brought in all my groceries but hadn't locked up yet . At 11 I got a knock on my door and at the door was my neighbor with Aubrey!!! She said she was outside crying. I thanked my nieghbor and loved Aubrey realizing Aubrey was way sticky from the marshmellows and stinky cuz she must have pooped while she was out there. So here is my daughter out at 11 at night lost with poopy pants and a sticky face!! Very nice. I felt like such a wonderful mom that night!!!

oh my! I'm glad your neighbor found her!

isn't amazing how busy we can get and think that everything is fine while we are trying to manage and then WHAM! you realize that you really messed up.


My cousin's lil'girl almost 2 decided to "walk the dog", got a flashlight, leash, let the dog out and went for a walk at 11 pm! Luckily a neighbor was outside and saw her, but she'd gotten pretty far.

The dog was protective and barked like crazy when the neighbor came to pick the lil' girl up, she wasn't even scared to be outside in the dark!
