You better watch it lady!

When you are being seated in a restaurant, I am sure you request to sit next to a table with children, right?  I mean who doesn't love to hear children chattering during dinner?  And, we all know how awesome it is when they slip from their seat and wander around just a bit.  Fun - right?

It is just a fact of life....and most of us know it.  We have to tolerate our fellow rug rats.  I mean, they are the ones who will be working till they are 90 to pay for our government care!  SO, we should show them some respect!

Look at this picture of my rug rat...could you SLAP this sweet face?  

Well, a lady said she would the other night.  You got it...an old, grumpy, mean, "lady" told me she wanted to slap my kid...

We were enjoying dinner with some friends of ours and their kids...our little girls were innocently standing next to our table causing no harm.  We were at the loudest place in town at 6 pm on a Thursday.  90% of the tables had children in the party.   Apparently we were bothering the table next to us.  The evil one at the head of the table looked at our little ones and said "SHHHH, I could just slap them!"  

I grabbed my irritating child and rushed outside.  I could feel the country girl anger raging inside my veins.  I had to hurry and exit before I reached out and showed this woman what a Mom from the suburbs was capable of.  

The table of 8 grumpy old women left soon after.  I peered at each one as they exited.  I am sure they had to rush home to greet their grandchildren who couldn't wait to come stay with the "World's Meanest Grandparents!"

Hope this ruffled your feathers as much as it did mine.  I am all about keeping kids under control...we were abiding by the rules....someone just had to be incredibly mean.

Reminds me.  I need to call Kirby's Steakhouse for reservations tonight.  8 pm.  2 and a high chair...see you there!
