Two year old Kid #2 is on a mission to drive Mama completely nut-so. While shopping the other day at Zellers (like the Canadian version of Target), he refused to sit in the cart, tried to launch himself out of the shopping cart and continually tossed away what I tried to buy. (Maybe this is a new way to save ca$h?)
If I steered the cart too close to the shelves he'd grab anything he could get his hands on. Like a toddler-style bull in a China shop.
I'd suppose it would be kinda amusing to someone watching it all go down....a grown woman trying to wrestle away a pair of rubber boots, pack of paper plates, bag of gummi bears, etc. etc. away from a 2 year old animal boy who's trying to grab every and anything. But it's not funny. It makes me want to start drinking wine. Alone. Everyday.
Meanwhile, lady #1, 2 and 3 in line to pay thought that it was funny and cute when kid threw out of the cart and shattered on the ground in the isle a jar of strawberry jam and then followed it by tossing ON TOP of jam/broken glass the pair of pajamas I was "trying" to buy. Guess I didn't really need those PJ's....
So the next time you see a Mama trying to "manage" her child, don't chuckle. Have pity, give a smile of understanding (and not a goofy, dumb-arse smirk) and know that someday that could be you. Karma's a bitch yo.
Should you be wondering what Kid #2 looks like, I've enclosed some I.D. shots to help better identify him....
