Play with me!

Dirty minded people! I know what your thinking...ewww. Today my baby (5 year old!) is having his first "alone" play date. His buddy's Mom asked last week if she could take him home from Preschool to play with her son. Sure! Sounds great. I just can't figure out why I'm a little concerned. Should I have asked the question about guns in the house...and are they locked away? Do I want to come off as some paranoid helicopter parent that can't let their kid take a poop without knowing about it? I'm new to this take a kid home thing. This Mom has an older kid so she's already got it all figured out. Me, not so much. I'm going to be brutally honest here...brutally. I don't want to take anyones kid home. Ever. A lot of the time I don't want to take mine home...why add to it? I get it, kids need interaction to get along with others. Isn't that why I'm paying $380 bucks a month for preschool? Now I'm here wondering if T is freaking out because essentially some strange woman is taking him some place he's only been to once. OR is he like, "Mom who"? He's not exactly what I'd call a Mama's boy. Ok, not at all. I'm working on the little one being Mama's boy. I want to be kinda like those Mama's on the show "Mama's Boys". It was a horrible reality show and no, I don't want to be totally like that. These Mama's were beyond control freaks. I just want my boys to realize that when I tell them their girlfriend is a scank hoe, I know what I'm talking about. Glad I only have two boys to worry about instead of all the boys. Yes...still worried til he gets home.

Such a big moment in every little boys life! I am with you. Whenever the kids want a play date to come home with them, I think can't you go to their house??

Well, T made it home. The poor Mom was freaked out cause the boys were rolling around in the grass and T got red bumps all over his face. She was so worried he was allergic to grass and didn't know if she should give him Benadryl. It was gone by the time they got here. He had a great time.

First playdates are tough. By number 39 you'll be sending him out of the house on a Friday with $20 and a toothbrush and telling him to be home by dinner on Sunday.

He's growing up.

I never want kids over here, but they come anyway. I tell myself at least I know what they're into.
