Truer Words...

Three times in the last two days, one of the kids has taken off to one of the neighbors without telling me. This sends me into an absolute tirade. I hate having to pound on one door after another looking for them - only to feel the moms looking at me like ... jeez lady, is it that hard to watch your kids??

After Maddie wandered next door today without asking, I went off on a huge tangent. Something to the effect of 'Don't you realize there are evil people in this world just waiting for their chance to take a little kid when they wander away??!' I immediately cringed at how harsh that sounded but had no chance to backtrack... her immediate response was:
"Mom, chill out -I am a HUGE pain in the butt - nobody would want to steal me"
