So You Had a Bad Day

Notice I added the Bad day song to my playlist... thats for you Jackson!! Today I went to pick Jack up from school and when I got there and Miss Amanda told me Jackson had a rough day. There was an "Ouch report" in his file and she said he got hit in the mouth with a toy car and busted his lip. She said they put a wet cloth on it and gave him some TLC and he was fine, she even said he was tough. Then at playtime he hit his head on something at the playground. Well after hearing about his accidents we walked out to the car with Landon and his mom. They boys started running down their usual little strip of grass while Wendy and I talked. Well during the 10-15 minutes we were out there Jackson must have fallen (whether it be on purpose or accidently) close to 15 times. Once he skinned his knee and freaked out about that. And it was muddy. Then he had "a bug in his eye" and was freaking out cuz he couldnt see. Finally after "the bug flew outta his eye" he continued playing with Landon then took a nose dive straight into the mud. He was covered, shoes, jeans, WHITE tshirt, hands and even his head along with a huge red mark where he hit the ground to go along with it. I decided it was time to go home. I stripped the kid down in the parking lot cuz there was NOWAY i was letting him get in my brand new car like that. He was soooo embarrassed, so of course was crying, again. Luckily by that time us and Wendy were the only ones left in the parking lot. So we get home and I start making the kids lunch. Jack wanted to go upstairs and put clothes on. Well he came down in Wyatts shorts and crying because he got the "wrong shirt" (Wyatts shirt). So i sent him up to get a new one and he comes down with a new pair of pants on, backwards might i add, and a sweatshirt haha i just let it go. So hes eating lunch and spills yogurt all over himself and immediately starts crying. Then notices his pants, that are covered in yogurt, were on backwards and is in hysterics by this time. He finally looks up at me while im wiping him clean and says "Mom Im having a really bad day." Priceless......

That was just too much in one day for anybody - especially a 3 year old !
Bless his heart....tell Jack that Gammy sends him a great big hug, and that tomorrow will be better - that's for sure!

Poor kid! That is so sad. You just feel so much worse for him when he realizes it and feels bad for himself!

That's so sad. Luckily he has a great mom to cheer him up and take care of him. Rachel's right that you feel worse when he feels bad for himself.
