Yesterday I put Parker in a time-out in his room. I honestly don't even remember what the offense was, or else I'd say. Anyways, around an hour and half later, I heard Parker in his room. I opened the door and found him playing with army guys and stuffed animals (weird combo). I looked at him absentmindedly, and immediately he looked towards the ground.

"Mommy, you said no toys but my time out was taking forever."

Poor boy. I had totally forgotten about him. I got busy washing the kitchen floor, banging rugs outside, and dusting my baseboards. I did not remember that I punished him, so therefore, I never went to "release" him from his discipline. Oops.

awe poor boy. :}
Over an hour is a very long time for a time out.

Well, the point is he probably did sit there for a few minute with out playing with toys. ;}

Your kids responces are so funny.

Poor Parker! I could see how easy it would to be forget since you were busy cleaning.

I love your mommy stories. You need to write a book someday! :)

HAHA!! That is too funny. I often dial someone's number on my cell, lay it down to do something quick and then forget about it and they wind up getting some funky message.

I would do that!!! Except that Josiah would probably come and get me and ask if he could get up!
