Morning Fail

DAILY SNACK

Irene has been extradorinarily clingy lately.

She whines and cries and demands to be held or played with,

Making it hard to get anything done.

So while the kids were finishing their breakfast at the kitchen table,

I snuck off to write an email.

Colum got up and ran out of the room,

And then Irene stood up, too.

In her highchair.

I hadn’t done up her highchair strap.

And then she fell.

She is completely fine, but man.
