BOB went to class

I recently read a blog telling of a quilting class -

Where a mom had brought her new baby -

Three weeks old -

Awwwwwwwwww -

What a cutie!!

She had left her two older kids home with daddy -

But brought the baby to class - ;))

BOB finds it hilarious strange -

That DADDY can't/won't handle all three kids -

On class day -

But MOMMY is expected to handle all three kids -

EVERY day - ;))

But I digress -

Now I know that I am probably in the minority -

A - G - A - I - N -

But I don’t think -

That the mom should have -

Brought the baby to class -

Even if she was breastfeeding -

That's why they have breast-pumps - ;))

I think that it was rude and selfish of her -

Unless the class SPECIFICALLY invited children -

Don't get me wrong -

I am ALL FOR teaching kids to quilt -

And the younger - the better -

But you have got to admit -

That three weeks old is a bit young -

To get a full grasp of the basics - ;))

AND -

If I were another mom -

Who had arranged for a babysitter -

For my kids -

And signed up for a class -

I would not appreciate -

Another mom bringing HER baby to class -

I left mine at home -

On purpose -

So that I could get AWAY from kids -

And talk to some grown-ups in the daytime -

Only to have YOU bring YOURS??

thankyouthankyouverymuch -

And then I’m expected to smile -

And say Awwwwwwwwww -

What a cutie!!

When I would much rather say -

Awwwwwwwww, MAN!! -

Or -

Oh, CRAP!! -

Why didn't you tell me kids were allowed?? -

If I had known -

I wouldn't have gone to all of that trouble -

To make special arrangements -

I would have just brought MY kids, too!! - ;))



But then again - it’s probably just me.
