Connorism

Yesterday was a rough day. I screwed up my appointments and scheduled things too close together because Teddy was sick on Monday and we had to skip things. So yesterday, a friend came and walked Teddy to school so I could take the girls to Hornsby. There we went to Connor's OT, 5 minutes to walk 2 blocks and then Tessi's speech therapy, then swim lessons. It was hectic to say the least.

But as we were racing across one street poor Tessi fell. I was holding her hand so I held on tight and swooped her back up and kept walking. She was fine, just scared herself. But Connor started commenting on how Tessi fell. After the 4th time of, "Tessi, fell down, didn't she Mommy?" I finally got her unstuck out of the loop. Then Connor got quiet and said, "Tessi fell, but I didn't say JESUS!"......right as a group of grandmas were passing us by. Damnit...or should I say Jesus. I got a few looks, but mainly a couple of smiles.

Thank you Connor. I applaud your restraint.
