Apparently, I am a menace to my children, too…

Published by at 9:48 am under The Daily Grind

Was giving the kids a bath last night, and accidentally knocked off a shaving-cream-can-style bottle of Dino Purple Bath Foam from its perch next to the shower head onto DemonChild’s head. Poor DemonChild started to scream in pain. Squeektar started to scream in sympathy. DemonChild stopped after a couple minutes. Squeektar continued for another ten, with DemonChild now trying to comfort him. So today DemonChild is sporting a band-aid on his forehead, covering up a cut and a bruise. I feel like the worst mother ever.

    Don’t feel too bad. I once dropped something hard (can’t remember what) out of the freezer right onto the top of Alex’s head. He cried too. It’s not like you did it on purpose. Just like the kids don’t always hurt you on purpose. Remember this episode the next time they rear their little heads back in anger and slam right into your mouth so hard that your front tooth is loose and you have a bruise on your upper lip.

    Eeep. Is that the voice of experience talking?

    Yes, unfortunately. But the bruise wasn’t actually visible, but it sure hurt for almost a week. And the tooth was tender for several days as well. Couldn’t bite anything with my front teeth for a while.
