#crying8yearold

Husband comes into work telling me that B is (once again) crying before school. He forgot his drink in his lunch and Husband wouldn’t go home. B has been packing his own lunch so this is his responsibility.  I am so proud of my husband at this point.  He tells me how he told B to get a milk, B cried that he didnt like milk.... (he drinks milk at home??) 

Anyway I am left with the impression he made B get out of the car and figure it out.  Good backbone Dad!

I pick up B from school and ask “So B, tell me how you solved your problem today of not having a drink in your lunch!”  l am all proud to hear how he overcame his issue.... THEN he pulls out Dad’s water bottle. 

Internal GASP.  I then say “So hang on... you cried and your dad gave you HIS water bottle? Is that how you handle issues that come up at school?  You just cry and you get your way?”  Then I said “You know who acts that way?  Babies....” 

Then I proceeded to lose my shit on my husband via text..... seriously???
