Dad already found another job!!!!!!!!!!! HIP HIP HOORAY! And he might even come home first :D

So, this is something that I know has happened to most mom's out there, that is pretty embarrassing, and yet SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO funny at the same time. At least to me it's embarrassing. So here is my story

When you were about....3 or 4 months old, I was holding you in my arms, and you were sound asleep. I was with a group of people, maybe 10 of us, and someone had brought doughnuts for the group. I snagged a jelly doughnut. OH IT HAD BEEN SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO long since I'd sunk my teeth into a rich, powdery, jam filled delicacy and I was so ready to savour that delicious, fattening goody. I took a big bite, and it was soooooooooo good. I was sooooooooo happy....it was amazing. Doughnuts...are amazing. Anyways, I polished off that doughnut in record time. I restrained myself from enjoying a second one and so just sat with the group talking about whatever we were talking about. About 10 minutes into the discussion, I looked down to treasure my beautiful little baby, and I gasped in horror as my eyes fell upon the HUGEST goop of jam, oozing down the side of your little head. I glanced around in horror, I had to make sure that nobody saw what a horrible, gluttonous mother I was - and though I'm sure somebody noticed all I could think about was hiding the evidence.

So in one swift action, I licked the jam off your head.

I wish I could say that's the only time I've eaten food off your head.
