Defeated

Musing from a Thursday afternoon in search of a birthday gift

You know your 3 kids are misbehaving at Target when. . .

1. A typically unconcerned Target employee approaches you and tells you that you children can not sit that way on the shopping cart. (It wasn't THAT dangerous, just side-saddle on those extra bench seats.)

2. You look around in the boys underwear department and realize you are alone.

3. Your 2 year old daughter leaves a pile of 6 pairs of shoes she has tried on.

4. Strangers approach you and say, "You must really get tired."

5. You have to loudly announce, "Well, bye, then, I'm leaving," because you have no idea where they are hiding.

6. Your boys are doing Mission Impossible moves by the frozen food, scaling the tiny ledge in front of the doors, hopefully not licking the glass doors while doing it. (Okay, well that actually happened at Costco)

7. You look down at your 5 year old at the check-out stand and he is actually SWEATING from his in-store exertion

8. You somehow purchased a Buzz Light year night light, which you most definitely did NOT put in the cart, and which is usually in an aisle that you didn't even go down.
