#ParentingFAIL Confession

Got woken up multiple times last night due to power failures tripping our smoke detector, etc, so I was kinda tired this afternoon. After I got the baby down for her nap (at least an hour later than normal, argh) I vegged on the couch with some YouTube videos. At some point, I lay down on the couch for *just a minute*.

Woke up about an hour later to hear the baby crying, woken up from her nap. Picked her up & came into the kitchen to see my four-year-old eating cold oatmeal from a container that he'd gotten out of the fridge. With a NINE INCH CHEF KNIFE.

Despite clearly having been using the knife to cut the oatmeal for a while (it was covered end to end in sticky fingerprints), he appears to be unscathed. Gah. At least he picked a healthy snack?

Please tell me I'm not the only one who has had one of these moments...
