Sunday Sentiments- I'm sorry Mommy

A few years ago, when Kaden was about 3 1/2, I got really mad at him about some little mess he made or whatever it was. I shouted at him and told him to just go outside and wait until it was cleaned up. So I am in the house cleaning the mess and really upset, probably not even about the mess. I probably just didn't get enough sleep that night and lost it on poor Kaden. Anyway, about five minutes later I hear a little knock on the door and Kaden is peering through the glass not sure if it's safe to come in. I go to the door and say "What is it?" All he can do is hold out a dandelion that he had picked for me and says "I'm sorry Mommy." Well, guess who feels like a big fat mean jerk... you guessed it. Yours truly... Well, there was definitely a big lesson learned that day. I should not have taken my frustrations out on my poor little boy. I was tired and he definitely did not deserve it. I immediately picked him up and gave him a big hug and apologized up and down. What a way to learn a lesson. I'm sorry that you are the family guinea pig Kaden. I love you!
