At a store today:
"Emma get off the employee only ladder, you're going to fall and break your neck."
"Tyler put that glass sugar bowl down."
All the while I am trying to talk to an employee about something.
"Where are my children?"
To some older people:
"Oh, don't mind those out of control children, by the way, where is their mother.? Oh wait that's me."
Older Person:
"Honey, don't admit that."
hahaha, not funny.
"Don't touch that." "Don't touch that." "Don't touch that."
"Are they not understanding", I think to myself. "Wait, don't touch that."
Whew, we got out of the store without having to buy anything extra due to breakage. (and I did say please, many times, it didn't seem to help.)
Later: (like 20 minutes later)
"What, no no no shots."
"I will buy you a prize if you be really good and hold really still."
Emma: "O.k. mom"
Tyler: "No shot"
Will: "No no no no"
At the Dr.'s office:
Child #1 (not in any particular order to protect the innocent and the guilty.): Sat still, didn't move, great job.
Child #2: "I don't want a shot." "NO, I HATE THIS." nurse has to hold legs down, push head over, while I held hands. Shot was given while said child was in a horizontal position due to struggling, screaming, and lack of holding still. Kicking, did I mention the kicking. Shot is done: Child thrashing on floor, banging head on wall. Crying, crying and more crying. Throwing of book in waiting room, looks of wonder on faces of people waiting.
Child #3: Little resistance, not bad. (after watching all that went on with Child #2, it's a wonder this child even stayed in the room.)
To the nurse: Hahaha, glad this is only once a year. (If we are ever welcome to come back)
2 children got treats, one did not.
And it's only 4:00 p.m.
