Does This Look Like Play-Dough?

So it was somewhat of a hectic day ... mostly because it was too hot out for Lincoln to really hang outside and it was too boring for Schuyler to really stay inside ... so what is a mommy to do? ... Well she asks her husband ... these wonderful children's daddy to take Skye to the store to get some play-dough ... she had only one little can of it and it was not in good shape ... I even went on to the website to point out a couple of the bigger play-dough toys that she would enjoy ... so she had something really fun to do in the house during the times I couldn't give her all the attention she deserved ...

An hour later they walk in with a huge box ... with a tricycle in it ... and the loudest bike horn EVER ...

I looked at David with a "what-the-hell-is-this" while Skye is screaming, "I got a bike mommy a bike, can you put it together? I wanna go outside and ride my bike ... can we go outside ... I wanna ride my bike mommy ... look at my horn ... I want to put it on my bike mommy ... you're going to put it together right ... I wanna go outside ... I wanna ride my bike outside mommy ... come on lets go outside ... " ... David looked at me and said, "She didn't have any interest in the play-dough she said she wanted a bike." ... ohhhhhhhh well if she said she wanted a bike by all means ... I mean she is 3 ... she would know best ...

Are you kidding me????

Did he think she wasn't asking to go outside enough before they left the house that maybe she needed inspiration to go outside ...

So what does mommy do?

I'll tell you a smart mommy would have taken it back and gotten the play-dough they had set out to get ... I am obviously not a smart mommy ... I sat down on the floor and put that bike together ...

And the second we went outside she was beyond happy to have her very own bike ... but secretly I would have still rather them gotten the play-dough ...
