Double whammy
My husband G. Grod was watching Drake. He fixed himself a beverage, put it on a table out of Drake’s reach, then made a phone call.
While he had his back turned for a moment, Drake managed to drag the drink off the table, spilling it everywhere. G. Grod ended his call quickly to clean up the mess. While he was doing so, Drake found the phone, turned it on, started pressing buttons and began babbling into it.
Whenever I ask my mother how she managed, she always says, “You were a very good baby. Not like Drake.”

The one thing I’ve found out, with 4 kids in 5 years, is that ALL good kid stories start with….”and I turned around for just a second….”

The funny thing I’ve noticed is how long a second can be. I’ll turn around, get distracted, then hear a crash,or worse, silence, and then turn around, and really, to be honest, it’s been quite a few seconds.
4 kids in 5 years? Kudos to you, sister. I’m keeping an assured safe distance from the idea of even #2, for now.
