So, things have gone really well the past few days...until today! We had been doing activities all morning. He was happy, and following instructions. He always does well and has a good time doing activities. Then, it was time to go outside and play on a beautiful day! I stayed out there for a few minutes, but then I decided I needed to get some work done. I left Alex outside playing under Daddy's supervision. I went around the house opening the windows to let some air in. When I got to the upstairs window, I looked out and noticed Alex putting something in his mouth. His response...it was a bird egg!!!!!! I raced down the stairs and out the door, horrified! I made him come in and wash his hands and wash his mouth out and brushed his teeth.
And, I may be a horrible parent, but I decided to describe to him what salmonella is and also told him that the baby bird that could have come out of that egg is now never going to exist because of him. Ugh!!!!!!!!!!!! He is 4 years old. When is he going to stop putting crap in his mouth????
