Not My Kids

First things first!

Lynn, over at Midday Escapades has me featured on her Meet 'n Greet Monday today! How cool is that? Go check it out....if for no other reason than she always has some really awesome giveaways going on!

I'll wait right here for you to go check it out.

Okay, now on to today's post:

It certainly was NOT me who got worried when my boys were quiet downstairs. It was NOT me who went looking for them and NOT me who started to panic when they were not in their rooms.

Because it's NOT my children who would go outside by themselves if given the chance.

It's NOT me who hoped that they had just gone into my room instead.

It's NOT my children who know how to break these "childproof" locks off the door.

It's NOT my children who went out the sliding glass doors to the deck. Even though it was NOT freezing cold outside.

It's NOT my kids who turned on the faucet and played in the freezing cold water, completely soaking themselves. And it especially is NOT my children who were standing there dripping wet, with one only wearing a pair of pants and one only wearing a t-shirt.

It was NOT me who screamed at them. NOT me who was freaking out, imagining that if I hadn't caught them when I did, they would have gone down the steps....

across the yard, and out to the beach.

Because my children would NOT do that, if given the chance. Especially NOT in the freezing cold, when they are dripping wet, and with no adult with them.

And it was NOT me who needs to invest in some better childproofing gadgets.


Go check out MckMama's blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.


And don't forget to go stop by Lynn's blog to say hi!

P.S. I couldn't play with Supahmommy and MommyBrain because they wanted to know about your best birthday...and all of mine pretty much sucked or were completely unmemorable. Where's the leftover cake from my pity party last week?
