I apologize for the intensity of my last blog. Lots of opinions that needed to be expressed. So for today I am going to tell the story of Jake, Marble and Midnight. A cautionary tale.
Yesterday we went for a barbecue at Chett's cousin Jen's house. Jake and Jen have a farm...cows, chickens, horses...and bunnies. It's like a kid wonderland. All the animals, and toys, and vehicles, and room to roam. It's great. We all love going there.
So kali spent the weekend there and was riding horses all weekend, and as soon as we got there the other two kids disappeared. Somehow it was brought up that Jen had same bunnies she needed to get rid of. So the kids asked Chett if they could have one. Unbeknownst to me Chett had said "if it's ok with your mom, it's ok with me." So when I was asked I replied "If it's ok with your dad it's ok with me." Not knowing that I was supposed to be the tough one. So we went and picked out Jake.... who was going to be our only bunny. Then we saw the Cage that jen was going to let us use...so Chett said "well we can get two." Grandpa then added "Chett you have three kids."
So Marble and Midnight were quickly picked out.
So the lesson here... don't bluff to your kids if you don't know that your husband already has... The funny thing is, that the kids really didn't play us, they just asked a question...
I think maybe chett and I really like bunnies... and that is why we now have three.
