The Bully

Living in a two bedroom apartment with 3 children is no walk in the park, but luckily we have a very large grassy area right outside and I can watch the children as they play with the several friends they have made in the complex. Yesterday as I was laying on the couch being the sick grumpy pregnant step mom making sure the kids didn't beat each other up to much I glanced outside to see my toddler purposly throw a ball at his friends head. But the worste part was he did it 2 more times. I have never been so embaraced. I ran outside to make him stop, becasue my hollering from the balcony was not enough, and he just looked at me like I was making it up. I told him to appologize, and then he went right inside to bed. Well as soon as he saw Daddy he started with the water works. Jason of course picked him up and held him and little just man cried and cried. Then he sees me grins and cries even harder. Oh the life of the wicked step mother!!! To give Jason some credit he did tell Mr. C to put on his pajamas and go to bed after a very little you know you need to be nice or you will loose your friends talk.

After about an hour in his bed with the lights still off it was time for the M & B to head to bed also, and that little stinker was sitting in his bed reading books to his puppy and kitty with his flash light. I can't help but love him but man if there was ever a time I would love to return a child it would have been last night.
