Why a parents mouth involuntarily moves when trying to feed a baby I will never know. Early in my parenting days I thought I was immune to such actions, but as it turns out no matter how much will power I use the mouth always triumphs.
I want to know what is going through a kids mind…
Baby Thoughts:
“Geez, I have more control with the spoon in my hand then this guy has with his mouth. And I usually end up feeding my eye or forehead.”
So true!! I have done a lot of stupid stuff in the name of parenting. Like walking around the grocery store explaining to my 12 mth old everything I was doing & picking up. I looked & sounded like a loon “Now this is an apple & we eat these. Yum yum!”
Kids are such a wonderful excuse to be crazy though. You can get away with so much loonyness when your a parent. Once when it got real quiet in church I tried pushing on my daughters belly to get her to fart. Didn’t work, but would have been hilarious.
