For the not so "naughty" kids in our lives

This design came to me in one of those horribly embarrassing, mommy moments.

I was at a playdate with one of my closest friends, the kids were eerily quiet. All of a sudden an explosion of screaming & crying, we run as fast as we can to them. My son sitting looking guilty, hers, red in the face from pain. Mason had just bit him...and this was the 2nd time.

After ensuring her son was OK, I scolded Mason, then of course mortified, break down into my own tears. They were tears of embarrassment, apologies, feeling like a bad mom...all wrapped in to one sobbing woman.

I know my son isn't a bad kid, in fact, he usually isn't rough at all and is more likely to be the kid at the bottom of the pile instead of the top. But, that is no excuse and I was still angry that this was how he chose to act out.

Thankfully I am surrounded my understanding, nurturing woman, who ensured me that this was just one of those "spirited" things that kids do...

I wanted to say sorry, but also be able to hopefully giggle about it one day with my friend, I have to send her one of these cards!

Sorry Tina, and thanks for being so understanding!

15% of the profits from the sales of this card will go to "Mason's Mission", please learn more about this fundraiser here www.masons-mission.com

You are funny! Kids are kids and they have to learn. Out of this came a very creative idea! I think these note cards are fun and sweet!
