Dilemma

Being a mother you are faced with tough decisions, day in and day out.

 

What food to give them that isn't full of processed junk but convenient enough to fit into a working parent's lifestyle?  Is this show educational enough?  Does this book send the right message? Where to send them to school?  Am I being a good role model as a Christian?  Financially?

 

The list goes on and on.

 

Then there are the lesser important decisions but decisions none the less that you have to face every single day.  

 

Do they need a jacket to go outside?  Are they safe playing on the trampoline?  Are they going to need baths tonight?  Should we watch a movie together?  Where are all the matches to the socks I have in front of me?

 

Then there is the age old question.  You notice your child has fallen asleep in what cannot possibly be a comfortable position:

 

 

Do you

 

 A.  Attempt to move him into a more comfortable position so he won't wake up cranky and crying with a sore neck?

 

or

 

B.  Leave him alone for fear of waking it up?

 

Well....  What do you do?

 

I was faced with that dilemma today.

 

It was a bad day. 

 

He was riled up.  He was rambunctious.  He was a chatter box.  A terror to his sister and the cats.  His stomach was a bottomless pit.

 

So when I noticed that he had fallen asleep in the chair, I chose the latter.

 

They are so cute...when they're sleeping.
