It has been brought to my attention that I left child medium out of my previous rant. Ok, well here it goes. As we are trying to walk out the door he has a toy gun and rag and is cleaning his gun. Somehow he managed to get the gun to the car and the whole time I am trying to back the van out onto the busy road we live on his is pumping the shot gun. Finally we get a few blocks down the road and I am threatening to throw the thing out the window. He said that would be fine he could walk down the road and get it later. Finally I must have been scary enough or he grew tired of cleaning that the noise stopped. He was pretty quiet until I missed the turn for Target and got rather upset. He really only likes to go to the Hixson Target and he kept saying he wanted to go to his Target not the other one which is in East Brainerd. Finally he hushed up until we were in Target and he got lost on the toy isle. Child large noticed that he was not with us but did not say anything until we were three isles away. I turn the corner heading back towards the Tag books that we had been looking at earlier when I hear a sad yelp for momma. He comes to the end of the isle and has tears in his eyes. I tell him to stay with us next time and we continue on through the store. He is over it as soon as he sees a echo microphone and a laser pointer he would like to have. Upon hearing the words no he is sad once again. Finally we get to the end of our shopping trip and everyone is in need of a snack. Thank god for the $1.00 popcorn combo. Ofcourse medium wanted apples and caramel not popcorn so I agree but they are out. We settle for a blue icee. In my craziness I forget to order a drink for small and he is really unhappy about sharing. Medium is not going to let him have any without a fight. I offer small mine but it's not blue so he does not want it. We leave Target and I am ready for a nap. As I got the wild hair and pulled into the Big Lots parking lot medium is yelling NOOOOOOO!!!! He is ready to go home. In retrospect I should have listened. We made it home and medium jumped out of the car so he could go ride his bike since it was hot outside. He did not stay out for long since large did not follow. He came up on the deck and played with the pogo stick and ate some cookies. There now you know is part in todays rant. Now Daniel is home and we have had a frozen pizza and salad for supper and are watching Nitro Circus. Just another fabulous night at our house.
