Pulling Teeth

So I was that mother at the grocery store today. The one who had the screaming kids - and was nowhere near done shopping. So embarrassing, and so irritating. If we hadn't need food so bad I would have just left, but where would that have gotten me? I would have had to go back for the second time in one day, and probably deal with longer lines......And other people's screaming children. So we stuck it out and got our essentials, and being the bad parent that I was today - got a cookie at the bakery. Yep, you heard it right. I rewarded bad behavior. FRICK. Probably just screwed myself with that one.

I think what made the shopping so bad is poor Graham is getting more teeth. He just got 2 of his top molars within 2 days of each other and now is getting the bottom 2 to match. I can (with confidence) say that it is hurting me just as much as it is hurting him. Selfish, yes. Tiring, yes. Over exaggerating, maybe. Show me a mother who says it isn't a big deal - And I will show you a liar......Or a drinker. Maybe that's what Mommy needs right now -

Beer, here I come!
