I Keep Forgetting Yarn!

Posted by Jenn Greenleaf Oct 19, 2009

I’m so frustrated with myself . . . . I’ve been SO excited about my son’s interest in weaving on his cardboard looms, yet I keep forgetting to pick him up some yarn. I’ve been to the store THREE times since he’s asked me to get him some, and I keep forgetting to get it . . . what is wrong with me?!

I have a good excuse today, though. I had to pick him up from school today because he has what appears to be the flu. The first thing he said when we rolled out of the school parking lot was, “thank you for picking me up, Mommy. Did you get me some yarn when you did groceries? I’d really like to weave until I feel better.”

::sighs::

Yep, that would’ve been a great thing for him to do while saddled to the couch with fluids and medicine. Yep, that would’ve been a great thing for him to do in between napping and reading. BUT NO, Mommy had to drop that ball again. He’s a forgiving little person and said, “it’s okay, Mommy, I know you were trying to hurry up so you could come and get me.” He’s such a sweet little guy.

I blogged about how he's feeling on my personal writing blog here: Yep, It's a Monday.
