Toilet Paper Roll Holder Incident

Game of Clue: Innocent Three-Year Old "Miss K", In the Master Bedroom, With the Toilet Paper Roll Holder.


Crime: Crying Newborn with a Bump on Forehead.

Yes, this is my Monday morning. After feeding Madison, I went to the Bathroom. Aren't Moms allowed? Next thing I know, Maddie is screaming, Kaylee won't tell me what happened, and our metal toilet paper roll holder that the maids broke the day before is laying next to Maddie. Yes, Miss K bopped Maddie on the head. I was able to soothe Maddie right away, and wasn't too worried....but then again this is a FOUR week old and the toilet paper roll holder is a rather heavy metal. Called the Pedestrian and they told us what to look out for....Maddie is fine and will be one tough little girl.

Now for Miss K, this is not like her. She just isn't a violent kid. However, she has become a rather curious and imaginative kid. So once again, we had the gentle and fragile talk. More importantly, she has entered a stage where she doesn't tell Mommy and Daddy what is wrong. Whether embarrassed or afraid of getting in trouble or disappointing her parents, she has hid the fact that she spilled Gatorade on the patio (not a big deal) and how her index finger is bleeding after experimenting with a pencil sharpener. So, the past couple of weeks have been a lot of talking with our Big Girl. We definitely have entered another stage of parenting, remember when they just eat, sleep, poop? Thanks Maddie.

You could always scare Kaylee and tell her that Maddie is coming home with me if she's not nice to her.
