Don't you love it when evidence of our parenting fails are caught on camera? Yeah, me neither.

IT'S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIIIIIIME OF THE YEAR!

Sing with me everyone!!

Ahhhhh back to school time. When all of my little hellions are out of the house for a few hours every day and I can get some real work done without being interrupted every four minutes and thirty-seven seconds with "Mom, I'm hungry," "Mom, I want to go out with my friends," "Mom, guess what happened on Minecraft."

(Side note: Have you seen that Staples commercial? It is my favorite commercial ever. Keep reading for the link to it. It's worth it.)

Don't get me wrong, I love my children with a passion that only rivals my love of sugar. But after so many months of trying to work with them here, enough is enough!

Unfortunately, the universe apparently did not believe enough was, in fact, enough.

Just a few days before meet the teacher, Bug was hanging out with my parents at a picnic or something in their neighborhood. Somehow, my almost six year old child rams into a ladder on the playground and gives himself a black eye. I'm still not sure how he did it, but it's quite the shiner.

Then the day before school started, he went to the dentist to have a filling fixed. No big deal. It just needed to be patched up.

Yeah. Well.

The stinker didn't like the feeling of his lip being numb so he gnawed on it All. Day. Long. Y'all, he gave himself a fat lip with his teeth!

So Bug went to his first day of first grade with a black eye and a fat lip. It's...I have no words.

I guess I should hurry up and clean my house before the authorities get here to investigate.

Kids, man.
