Mom Outsmarted by 2-year-old

It was the moment I discovered I am SO not in control.

My 3-year-old was on the couch sick with a fever. My husband had just left for work. The doorbell rings.

As I run to the door with my 2-year-old, I see the pool repairman through the glass. Ugh, I forgot he was coming. I run outside to lock up the dogs so he can make his way to the pool in the backyard. As I run back to the porch with my bare feet on cold cement and sweats that I wouldn't be caught wearing even at the playground, I discover the front door is locked.

OMG.

There's my 2-year-old peering through the glass giggling. When I say (as calmly as possible), "Honey, turn the handle and let Mommy in," he replies with, "Peekaboo, Mommy!"

Come see my new photos of Sarah on my blog!

That's one of my biggest fears...

Glad it worked out okay. :)

Brady is so smart! Of course he had to let mommy in. I always worry about that with the car keys after putting Kimi in the car seat b/c it locks automatically and she is always snagging my keys.
