I got the chance to have my darling Avi with me all weekend long! We played baby dolls, spent hours at the park and even danced in the kitchen. In other words, I was having the time of my life.

We headed to the grocery store last night, something I was very excited about doing as, when I imagine motherhood, I always have this image of me pushing a cart in a grocery store with a darling little child in the cart. Mothers worldwide have tried to tell me that my fantasy isn’t at all based in reality but I have ignored them, convinced that it would be different for me.

She tied my sweater to the shopping cart. Without me knowing. That I was tied to the cart. Until I tried to walk away from the cart. And fell. Because she had tied me to the cart. And I didn’t know.

You may begin saying “I told you so” now.
