Parents of the year goes to...

Yesterday we had what you would call the complete opposite of a relaxing evening...
Between the crazy rain outside, the many time outs inside, the seven men working on finishing the basement, the grocery shopping, the lack of naps, burning supper, the phone calls, organizing my new buisness, Mr.'s crazy day at work, and my wonderful seasonal allergies - I forgot it was Tuesday.
Son of a.
I forgot it was TUESDAY.

Picture this.
It's 10:48 pm and I was ready to get some shut eye....like 5 hours ago ready.

"Oh my" I said as I flipped over in bed and gently nudge hit  the Mr. "It's freakin' Tuesday !"
I may have used a different word but let's keep this PG.
"So" he says.
"It's SOCCER night and WE forgot!" 
Yes, WE - I'm not taking complete responsabilty for this mistake.
"Oh no we missed soccer !" says the Mr.
"It wasn't JUST soccer -  it was his soccer graduation!"
Aka the last day of toddler soccer. I know I'm the worst.
"I can't believe we both forget about this, you never forget these things" - Mr.
"I feel like the worse mother of life right now" - Me.

Silence until 11:06 pm

"Please don't fall asleep right now, I'm so upset, he was probably going to get a little certificate or trophy or something for completing this season and there were BLOW UP castles for them to play in ! I can't sleep I'm too upset. Are you upset ? Are you sad ? " - Me.

"Yes Ashley I am but just bring him to lots of play dates this week to make up for it." - Mr.

Sidenote : Now, no offence to my lovely male readers but, if that's not a man's way of thinking I dont know what is ! 
I'm laughing now, last night...not so much.

After a few more sighs, a couple of sad thoughts and a set of watery eyes, I finally fell asleep.
I woke up this morning ready to tell C.A.P what his not so fabulous parents forgot.

After my long " not so 2 year old friendly apology" he responds with this : "It's fine Mama ! Go play in sandbox?"

Yes, he's not quite three yet, but boy oh boy, can that little man make his Mama feel better.
So off to the sandbox we went.

Despite feeling a bit very upset at our lack of scheduling skills yesterday I think hope C.A.P will forgive and hopefully forget his parents mistake, or maybe we should leave that one out at his wedding...

Now it's time for a playdate and a stop at Walmart to pick up an agenda. 



Thanks for stopping in today - Hope everyone is having a great week !

Bye.Cya

  3. What a sweetie! I've forgotten a thing or two over the years and usually I'm more upset about it than the kids are. It happens sometimes.
