Real life and a full moon....

As much as I loved looking at the Grammy's pictures, I just thought I'd share a moment of real life in the Farnsworth family. I'll want to remember this someday (I say that mostly sarcastic). Walking in the grocery store tonight (which I have come to find out that the store is the perfect context for disaster and MOST embarrassing moments for me as a mom). So you ask.... why do you take your kids? Leave them at home with a sitter or wait til Dave gets home. Well, in a perfect world I wouldn't need a certain ingredient for dinner I forgot to buy earlier and my husband wouldn't have CPR training or some other meeting at night and I could go. (Sigh) Anyway, imagine me putting a variety of items into my grocery cart with a smile on my face to finally turn around to find Blake full mooning Austin and Chase laughing his head off. Not just moon, but he was even pulling his bum cheeks apart. Ya, I pretty much hated my life from that moment on. What could I do... everyone is watching to see how I react. Truth be told, gut instinct was to spank his little booty and hard. But I kept my cool (kinda. I mean if forcefully holding his hand means that). I graciously took everyone's disgusted stares and then when I got to the car I balled my eyes out. I think I felt most horrible about the feelings I was having like "I seriously hate being a mom right now. I'm the worst mom in the USA (probably other regions as well). What is wrong with me? What is wrong with my kids?" While those thoughts may still ring through my head tonight. At least this one can ring through yours.... "Glad that wasn't my kid".
