And if I saw you yank your adorable daughter's LEASH so hard that you slammed her into the wall, well, I'd be the first one there to offer you help. Buuuuuuut. Your writing was so funny that I laughed out loud, scared my elderly cat off my lap, and nearly had a Diet Dr. Pepper disaster on my keyboard. So funny; great job. Again.

My SIL had to tie her little boy in his bed at night(by his ankle) because he would get up in the middle of the night and get into everything. One night it was the knives. He just wanted some cheese.

I think Emi thinks it's just part of her daily outfit whenever we aren't at home. Heck, she loves that thing. Go figure. <br /><br />And yeah, if the threat of the kiss didn't get to her, I am thinking the threat of getting out the leash again might. I have an extra. :)<br /><br />P.S. Yes, I shouldn't be reading blogs. I should be packing the room. It's a sickness!Kiyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02267811425878761240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802790462395863282.post-10902829935228980992009-09-14T09:01:54.887-06:002009-09-14T09:01:54.887-06:00Thanks for the great story!!

While not a mom yet, it's nice to know there are leashes should I need them (veteran babysitter).<br />Though a little cousin was a too-smart-for-the-leash child. In one of Canada's busiest malls her dad wasn't paying attention and she disengaged herself from the leash (just a velcro wrist strap) and tied daddy to a bench that was within reach!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802790462395863282.post-46232468799448821492009-09-13T21:14:52.606-06:002009-09-13T21:14:52.606-06:00That is too funny!

I was trying to carry my purse, which was crammed full of anything it could carry, my carry-on bag, which was crammed full of anything it could carry, and a diaper bag, which needless to say was crammed full of anything it could carry.<br /><br />I had to split the three bags between my two shoulders and try to carry my restless wiggly son. It never worked for long because he wanted DOWN. As heavy as he was in addition to my three bags, I was happy to put him down. But then he would take off running. It was a nightmare, especially when my flight got delayed and I had to stand in line with him. I prayed, "Dear God, if he will only stay still I promise I will never make fun of parents with leashes again."<br /><br />Luckily, on the trip back, I discovered THE CART. Best dollar I ever spent in my life. <br /><br />It's heart-tugging though that first time your child doesn't want to hold your hand. My girls were about 8 or 9. My son is 11 and still holds my hand and kisses me in front of his friends. Maybe because girls mature faster? Still, I want them to be 30 and still holding my hand.Randihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16746936407430428943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802790462395863282.post-46498370930302419982009-09-13T10:30:44.842-06:002009-09-13T10:30:44.842-06:00Mine has started to do that with holding my hand a...Mine has started to do that with holding my hand as well.

I mean, really, what's wrong with you that YOU can't watch your kid....and then...I had a kid. i don't have a leash, YET, but I know its coming. And we'll proudly wear our leash, and I'll probably slam my kid into a lot of stuff! Ok, a funny to share though, once at the airport I saw a grandma that had her grandkid on the leash (mom was there too) and they were ordering breakfast & not paying attention to the kid and the kid just took off into a full run and nearly took grandma down. THAT was hysterical (and will probably happen to me one day!)Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15633649204227571355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802790462395863282.post-64150163394472483142009-09-13T08:47:05.282-06:002009-09-13T08:47:05.282-06:00Those darned kids!!
