Up to that point I was curious if your kids ever melted down and how you'd react, and I have to say you handled it like a true pro. You never have to be embarassed around your friends (or anyone that has kids for that matter).

It's almost funny to watch. And like clock work she will always reach for some part of my body and say, " I love you Mama." just to show me she's not the one making a scene. One time this winter she had a meltdown at the toy store and I walked her out of that store so fast. As I was buckling her into the car I finally got to say, " You are acting just like all of those other kids we see!"

To be honest, i stopped looking at my case of wine to watch… not sure if i was staring at the poor lil guy or the crazy mother who was doing absolutely nothing to console him. literally the kid got down on his belly on the floor and did the kicking and pounding of the arms on the ground. it did get to a point where all i could do was just laugh. is that wrong of me? Was laughing at the mom for continuing her shopping as if nothing was going on, or laughing at the poor lil guy b/c what in the world could have made him so distraught? the fact that he did not get his organic dried fruit?

And yes… I am trying to mentally prepare for that day as well.
