The park...

The kids didnt have school on Friday so we took our lunch to the park and played for awhile. I don't know why I hate the park like I do. Is it because it's just 1 more thing? Because the playground is filled with nasty germs and I watch my kids rolling all over the slides and steps and other equiptment? Is it that I am a mean MOm and I'm selfish and secretly wish I was home taking a nap? I mean I love getting them outside, I love to see them running, and giggling and playing like they should, but there is something about it lately that is slightly annoying. Is it because they always want to go feed the ducks and it's by the 3 feet of water I think they are going to drown in? Or the duck poop they will inevitably walk in? Or the garbage cans that are ALWAYS full and have something sticky on the outside that you try really hard not to touch as you smoosh your trash in the opening? I don't know, but the park drives me nuts sometimes.

Ahhhh, I completely agree! Plus I'm so paranoid that my kids are going to get hurt... probably because they always do. So as they're climbing and swinging and balancing, the whole time I'm clenching my jaw waiting for them to slip and need stitches!
