“I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.”
Mothers,
“Yours is the work of salvation, and therefore you will be magnified, compensated, made more than you are and better than you have ever been as you try to make honest effort, however feeble you may sometimes feel that to be. …Do the best you can through these years, but whatever else you do, cherish that role that is so uniquely yours and for which heaven itself sends angels to watch over you and your little ones….The very fact that you have been given such a responsibility is everlasting evidence of the trust your Father in Heaven has in you…. If you strive to love God, if you try your best to be the best parent you can be, you will have done all that a human being can do and all that God expects you to do….Remember, remember all the days of your motherhood: ‘Ye have not come thus far save it were by the word of Christ with unshaken faith in him, relying wholly upon the merits of him who is mighty to save.’ Rely on Him. Rely on Him heavily. Rely on Him forever. And ‘press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope.’ You are doing God’s work.”
Jeffrey R. Holland, “Because She Is a Mother,” Ensign, May 1997

Before being a mother I would be raving "why don't you keep an eye on your kid - gosh!" 5 years and 3 kids later i just moan and am thankful that laptop's not mine... ours has only been stepped on so that the hinge is completely broken! Grin and bear it, however from your other post it sounds like you were a bit of a mischief once too - are you getting a taste of your own medicine here?!
Oh no!!! I'm impressed you were able to fix it.
My mother kept a journal of my damage. Ex: mixing the flour and the sugar together, peeing in the dryer (on a clean load of clothes), etc. I never feel that my kids are that bad, when I think of myself as a toddler/preschooler. I suggest writing all of this down for posterity's sake.
oh wow. i'm surprised it was fixable. whew!
I'd made him put it back together. he took it apart, so he must know how to get it back together. Pretty smart kid. How many 18 mos toddlers know how to disassemble a laptop?
Such a bummer.
Maybe you could just stop brushing your teeth? Or bathing, cooking, sleeping, etc.
wow! he's even got giz (estie) beat.
