I'm waiting for the day. The other day Ava was playing mommy/baby with B. She was the mommy and he was the "bad baby". She went on a mini tirade that was word for word an exact thing that I said to her early when I was very mad. She ended it with, "if you do that again I will spank you". :/ mother of the year. I can't wait for her to pull that out at school.
My 3yo told his teacher that "mommy drinks wine, and daddy drinks beer, every night!"
He also mimics my road rage, apparently, because he yelled (at the imaginary driver), "Damnit! Don't you know how to drive!?" And some more. Almost word-for-word what I think I yelled at the guy driving 20 in a 40 zone yesterday.
My kid tells people that her daddy eats food off the floor. 5 second rule people.
I would be really pissed and not sure where to direct my anger, but would be inclined to start with the dealership. I also think that barely adding 4k worth of miles to a car (unless you are off-roading is pretty small to then have such an expensive and, as you mentioned, extensive issue that could cause damage to other vehicle systems. I would absolutely want to talk that through with someone at the dealership. Did they do one of those million point inspect reports prior to you purchasing the car?
Yep. Everything checked out. Our mechanic thinks it was just a bad part that crapped out. Unusual, but not the dealership being shady. It may be worth a call to their sales department anyway, but I may let my more level headed, authoritative sounding DH handle that. I am likely to either just rant or give up and thank them in a weird display of embarrassed politeness.
My four year old got up this morning, went to the bathroom, and then ran into our room naked instead of going to his room to put clothes on like he does every day. He didn't bother to explain that he had pooped and needed help wiping until he'd already climbed up on our bed and left a dirty poopy butt print on my sheets. WTF. So freaking gross.
Was it the crack of dawn? Lol
But really omg what are kids thinking. I think everything ds does it pretty cute but draw the line at butt skids
