I feel worse for you than for Mia! She's probably forgotten all about it by now :)

My son loves the Morningstar Farms corn dogs. He's been eating them practically his whole life and I really don't think he knows they aren't "real".

**smiles**

One morning when I was a kid, my mother served me some disgusting French toast. I kept telling her it didn't taste right, but she kept insisting that I eat it ... until she tasted it and realized she'd been so tired she put garlic powder in instead of cinnamon. I just thought it was hilarious.

And I was happy I didn't have to eat any more of that French toast.

Seriously? This is the worst thing you've done in a while? Will you raise my hypothetical kids?

yep, pretty sure you can stop feeling bad about this one! she'll survive :) :)

On Saturday I was getting breakfast for my son (and coffee for me) when he made that screech of pain/crying sound that you just know as a parent means he's hurt himself good. He came running to me and after about 10 seconds announced himself "all better" and turned to leave. I admit, I was annoyed with him 'cause I was just pouring my coffee and he'd been acting up just prior to this happening. As he turned to leave I brushed his hair off his forehead and found a HUGE black goose egg just at his hairline. He'd run into the corner of my desk. And because he's autistic and doesn't feel/react to pain the way you or I would, he just carried on. I honestly almost threw up with fear and guilt and OMG my son could have given himself a concussion and I almost didn't even notice. So I think you're off the hook for the wings. And my son is fine too.
