My Weakness as a Father...


I promised myself that I would never be THAT parent who buys the unnecessary toy that my child pulls off a shelf. Well, I am THAT parent. I was sent to Super Target today to buy some snow pants for Andrew. We got a little side tracked in the toy aisle. Here's the result. Every little boy deserves an early birthday present. Right?

6 Things to Say:

That pic is priceless. And I am SO THAT PARENT. I get too excited and can't help myself.

Pat yourself on the back for being the parent that follows the family proclamation and encourages their child to participate in healthy recreation (of which I am a big fan). When Andrew starts grabbing stupid things off the shelf, then you can be concerned. In the mean time-You are both brilliant parents!

Ah, so cute. He looks so content...good job Justy.

Colle said...

That is a great picture. Every little boy needs a basketball.

If you do that every time he pulls something off the shelf, you can call it a weakness, but every once in a while I think kids need to know that they deserve a gift just because they are yours and they are special. Besides, look how happy he is!

l love this-- if it means making him a sports fan, early birthday presents are brilliant.
