I had taken a planned day off of my day job today to attend my youngest son's preschool graduation. I got some housework done, cooked supper, and caught up on blog correspondence. My baby girl had been whiny all day. Poor girl has teeth coming in. I had given her tylenol, put on her amber teething necklace, tried to hold her and comfort her for a while. I gave her things to teeth on, tried a pacifier. Nothing was making her happy. I finally decided to take a breather and blog I noticed she stopped fussing.
You know what they say, when they're quiet they're up to something. So of course I go to check on her. This is what I find.
She got into some of the Campbells label and box top stash I had been saving for the school. She had them everywhere but she was enjoying herself. Somehow she also got a hold of a box of rice. She was so entertained with it. I figured, she can't hurt herself with it so I let her go. It was the first time she was content all day and I was able to attend to something else for a few minutes.
Have you ever let your child do something you wouldn't normally just to get a moments peace?
