I got back from my morning run and was ready to start the day when...
Caely opened the freezer to check on her KOOL-AID and low and behold ~ it falls out all over the floor. Red Kool-aid everywhere! I clean it up (usually she would do it herself, but I didn't want sugar drink tracked throughout the house), get the kids breakfast and just sit down when what?...
Patch somehow flips his bowl over and spills, guess where? Yep, EVERYWHERE!
The only thing that refrained me from freaking out was, first ~ I could take a picture and share with all of you and second, it's just spilt milk right? Poor kid. As I was cleaning he said, "mom, I have milk on me" I said, yep. He said, "are you cleaning it up" I said, yep. He said, "are you mad" I said, nope. He said, "you're not?!"
That made me really happy I didn't freak out. Like I said before, poor kid.

Good for you holding it together!
Same thing with me yesterday. someone spilled something, and I didn't get mad. Bryson goes "you're too nice. what's going on???" Um...
that's not good.
I will remember you when I want to get mad at spilled milk. It always so much better when you(me) can relize its just spilled milk and just get over it without being mad.
Kudos to you! I KNOW how hard it is to hold it together and I love the new use of "It's just spilled milk."
I will adopt that and practice it.. in the morning.
Good for you and thanks for the humble smile at the end of a chaotic day!
Oh man, days like that happen only once in a while..thank goodness! Poor Patch.
Love the face. Poor kiddo. Sometimes it really isn't worth getting mad. Good job.
