Laughing Among the Chaos

I had a plan. The boy was going to be in bed by 9. Well…as you know if you have followed the Kaiden Chronicles basically his whole life, nothing ever goes as expected and we have a lot…A LOT of WTF moments. So we got home and had a lovely fire safety lesson where we…

Kaiden woke up this morning and immediately started to cry. I was racking my brain trying to figure out what possible reason he would have to wake up crying. So I asked him what was wrong. Through his tears he mumbles something about the tooth fairy and how his tooth was under his pillow and…

Another glimpse into my life… no he did not have the key. Yes, they are actual handcuffs that he bought at the Army Navy Store. Yes, they are off now, thanks to Rob and his fancy tools. SMH

I literally bribe him to be good at school. Usually it is a Popsicle, sometimes it’s a slush. Today I stopped at the store. He asked for these 1 dollar beauties instead of a treat. I watched him plaster them all over his body because: YOLO! And then I remembered tomorrow is picture day….

He found a hose, still hooked up at the neighbors house. He unhooked it and dragged the entire hose over to our house, hooked it back up, and made himself a mud hole. Quietly he entered his own form of heaven . AND THEN THIS HAPPENS… Little man obviously needed a bath after being left…

Chocolate milk mix, bag of chocolate chips, antique skeleton key for jail, bag of jolly ranchers, hello kitty color thing, markers, matchbox cars, cheese grater, and a pile of what looks like beef jerky but is actually REALLY OVERCOOKED HOT DOGS.

Rob and I sat down to watch a little TV after a long day. The kid should have been in bed, but he is like a wild animal who never wants to sleep. He was playing upstairs in his room, so what could possibly go wrong? We heard a <pop>. This was the kind of…
