Ever have one of those moments as a parent where you are completely mortified? Where your kids, who in typical kid fashion, yell something out in public they shouldn’t have? Innocently of course, not realizing why you are turning bright red and hurrying them along?
I had one of those moments last week.
It was like any other day. I packed the kids up after breakfast, getting dressed & brushing their teeth and we headed on our walk to the grocery store.
It was early. But not too early so that the store was empty. It wasn’t.
We were only there to pick up a few things like we do every day and I was happy because the kids were in a great mood – which can go either way when I make them walk so early in the day.
As we were turning the corner after paying for the few items we bought about to leave the store, Big P stops us.
“Oh no Mom, look!” he says very concerned.
I am looking around and have no idea what he is talking about. He then points…
… to the closed wine store.
“The store is closed mom. You can’t get your juice“
& I die.

LOL! That’s not so bad. I mean, we all drink our “juice.”
Now, I am waiting for my child to say THIS in public:

I’d rather have her talk about wine.

Hahahaha! We’ve all been there, mama. My son grabbed a tiny thong in the ladies underwear department and exclaimed, “These are a LOT smaller than yours, mom!” Gee…thanks, kid.

right! i was bright red
The kids I nanny for have only seen me drink a couple of times, and it was wine with my bosses at dinner. Thank GOD because I can just IMAGINE them doing something like this in front of their parents and making them think I carry a bottle of wine around all day. xD
