Warm Laundry and Baby Boy


Warm laundry...mmmm
 
Being intrepid did not always work in Little Man's best interests.

When Mummy turned her back, he crawled toward a vase, leading to a crash and broken glass.  Then Little Man discovered a spoon and Daddy’s iPad.  Just a few bashes resulted in a clang, a flash¸ and some loud buzzing.

Yes, being intrepid could possibly drive Mummy over an emotional cliff.

I crawled here, and stood up.  NOW what do I do?

This is a repost from 2013. Italicize underlined word are from Wednesday Words, prompts for bloggers to play with. Little Man is now12 yrs old with a little brother (now 6 yrs) who dearly loves his big brother.  We grandparents love them so much.

  1. the little boy and the story is perfect. makes me smile and feel happy. seeing little man standing in the trap he made for himself makes me laugh because he is laughing. When my 57 year old son was this age his delight was crawling to the bookcase and pulling every book in it out onto the floor. I let him do it because it meant he spent a few minutes in one place. ha ha

    1. Exactly. Books are good. My daughter once crawled over (while I had my back turned) to a cabinet and pulled out a jar of mustard. It crashed. Oh well.

  6. Crawling babies often need 24/7 surveillance.

    1. When our babies were crawling around during the 70s/80s, there were no incredible safety products. It was a job on the run.
