Lol! You sound like a real peach.
Oh my your mother in law jumped the curb! Glad she didn’t wreck and kill your baby. I guess you didn’t forsee the consequences of your action letting your daughter ride with MIL, you wanton attempted murderer. :)
Btw, no one in our family is too sorry to strap a carseat. My husband’s hands and fingers are not small/nimble enough to be able to strap it tightly so he leaves it up to me to strap the carseats down. He learned after that to lay the carseat on it’s side when changing cars.
At that age my daughter was big enough to climb into her seat by herself and buckle herself into the harness. All I had to do was check to see that her harness was tight enough and not tangled. It did not occur to me that he had moved the carseat that morning. Oh wow, I’m human!
You are one judgemental son of a gun. I really pray your sactimonious attitude never comes back to haunt you one day. I hope you can learn some grace without a tragic lesson to teach it to you.
Yup. She wanted to treat it like nothing. Kinda like I knew you would, which is why I withheld some details, like her putting all four wheels over the curb, taking out an oak sapling, and this from pulling out of a parking space.
You see, I learned a long time ago a woman’s evaluation of any situation has more to do with her atitude toward the people involved than the circumstances in which they’re involved.
So if your husband can’t strap the carseat in “tightly” he shouldn’t do it at all?
What kind of carseat do you have anyway? I can’t imagine one that could be that difficult to properly secure AND not be obviously loose.
Finally, I just LOVE your “goldilocks” attitude! “Oh wow, I’m human!” “This one’s too hard, this one’s too soft, but the one I like is juuuuuust right.”
But I’m sanctimonious....that must be it.
Didn’t you read his responses?
He is a freaking hero!
But for his heroic actions, 2 babies would be dead!
I have been around many babies and never been in the position to save any from death. Maybe I have been fortunate that way.
Either that or my self-importance-seeking imagination is lacking...
