Waiting On A Woman

Today I put Kailer through something that someday (I'm talking a LONG ways down the road!!) his wife will say to me "Thank you." I made Kailer wait for me while I got ready to leave. It's always an adventure to get both of us ready to leave and the added "bonus" of working from home and having a second office only adds to the fun; because it means I have to gather everything I need from home and take it with me ... needless to say it's not as easy as it may seem.

So, this morning I got Kailer all ready - clean diaper, clothes, socks, hat, snacks etc. We were just about ready to leave the house when I remembered that I needed to fill out some deposit slips for the bank (another thing that is much easier to do at home, rather than at the bank with a 9 month old). So I sat Kailer on the floor and either 1) the cap on the cereal wasn't on tight and when he shook the container it fell off or 2) he got it off (which wouldn't really surprise me either) and here is my little guy waiting for me to get ready to leave.

"Guess I'll just eat more of these puffs while I wait for Mom."

"Still waiting...and waiting...."

"My goodness, Mom, are you ready yet?!?!?"

I really didn't make him wait all that long, but I think he learned a valuable lesson about women and patience ... and at such a young age!!!
