Maybe Your Kid Shouldn't Come

over after all!

One of Alexa's friends came home with us after school today as her mom was having a procedure done today and needed a bit of help with the logistics of her five kiddos! We had a great afternoon- snacks, playtime outside, playtime inside, and some good 'ole Tom and Jerry on the tv.

However, when it was time to take her home, I took her to the wrong house! No one was home for us to be too embarassed, but when we pulled up, she said, "I have never lived in this house!" It was too cute. She wasn't upset or overly forceful, but she knew it didn't look right.

Why did I take her to the wrong house?

Well, I have picked her up and dropped her off one other time. I knew which neighborhood, and I knew she lived next to the neighborhood playground. I was thinking she was the house across the street from the playground which put the playground in her front yard. She actually lives in the house on the next block which puts the playground almost in her back yard. Oops! The house layouts (at least from the outside) are exactly the same, so I really thought I was in the right place.

Oh well . . . we didn't seem to upset her and I had a good laugh about it. Just a warning though to any other people out there who haven't brought their child to our house before . . . you might use caution after all!
