being a mom...
From day to day, being a mom of young boys means I'm in for a roller coaster, all the time. Today had it's own challenges, but there was a funny moment. We were in Target, and Willik expressed his desire for some a toy. Whatever it was[i can't remember], I told him we couldn't get that, because we didn't have a backyard. Well, he simply told me, "Mam㥬 we have to buy one"; to which I replied, "Where do we get them?" He said, "We have to go to a store and buy a backyard, that way, we'll have one." What silly-ness.Well, on the other hand, 2 days ago, the first day of this incredibly hot and humid heatwave, I decided that I would have to be the meanest moom in the world, if I didn't take the boys to the park for a bit after preschool, so we made our way there.
We weren't there but 10 minutes, when Phoenix had an accident. He trip on his own feet, as he ran toward a slide. The slide broke his fall, ON HIS FACE! So, with a crazy bleeding nose, lots of crying, and some ladies being "thankful" that I was not this kid's babysitter (they were); we got back to the car and made our way home quickly, attempting to ice Phoenix's face.
Not only did I have Phoenix screaming in pain, but Willik was crying too, because he wanted to stay at the park!!!
Thus, the roller coaster of emotions and events. Phoenix is fine, just bruised up. Looks like he was in a fist fight. Check out the photos[you'll have to look closely]...

Wow, that Phoenix is a whirlwind. That was funny about the back yard. It reminds me of when I was a kid I used to say stuff like "Is today yesterday or today tomorrow?" I thought they were actual day names.
