Last night, I heard myself yell at my son for something I never anticipated. After a long, exhausted work day, I arrived home to my 2-year-old wanting nothing more than to sit with me on the sofa watching a cartoon and to rub his eyes on my big toe. I felt my not-perfectly polished nails scraping against the skin of his eyelid, and then heard the voice of a worn-out working Mommy shout "SON! GET OFF MY TOES!" My husband dismissed me for a "timeout" and suggested that I put on some shoes.
There are some things you just don't expect to hear yourself saying. Yelling at your son for shoving your big toe into his eyesocket happens to be one, at least for me.
