Thermometer?

Yesterday evening Andy was not feeling well. He had asked me if I thought he had a fever and I said that it was a possibility so maybe he should take his temperature. He then asked where the thermometer was. I told him he should look in the bathroom cabinet. After a few minutes he said I'm dying my temperature in only 36 degrees. And I thought well that is strange. Then he said I have never saw this thermometer where did it come from. Then it occurred to me that he had used Eli's thermometer from the hospital to take Eil's rectal temperature. He earned the name butt mouth for the rest of the night:)

I forgot... what else can I say.

Today we have failed our child as parents. I picked him up from daycare and he was not wearing any pants. I thought oh how cute he must have been warm. No, he had had a messy diaper and did not have extra clothes to put on. Luckily his other daycare peers did not mind that he was not wearing his pants. Furthermore we forgot his gloves, he was not wearing any socks, and he did not have a hat to wear outside. Then she said Oh yes you also forgot to bring him a blanket. Wow we are lucky we got our kid there. I apologized and asked her kindly to please not take it out on my child we are new at this parenting thing. This is just the beginning of learning and growing with our child. I pray that we may always learn from our mistakes.

Tootles,
