Bad Idea!

So the other night I was really tired and Tyler was being very clingy. I had to fold the laundry, so I sat down on the couch and turned on the TV for us. By the time I was done with the first load, I just couldn't stand to watch any more kids cartoons, so I changed the channel. Usually I look for Jon & Kate plus 8 because he'll sit and be entertained by the kids on the show, but that show wasn't on. There was really nothing to watch, but then I came across the Simpson's. I used to watch this show all the time. In fact, it was a ritual every Sunday with a couple of friends from high school to get together and watch it, but I haven't been watching it lately. So I though what the heck. Tyler's still pretty young, and even if he picked up a word like stupid or crap, no one would understand him if he tried to say it. So I watched the show. About half way through, Homer and Marge are arguing, and Marge slaps Homer, and Homer slaps Marge and back and forth a couple of times. Then they laugh. Right after that, I get a good open handed slap across my cheek! Tyler slapped me! I was shocked! Although I shouldn't have been. He had this big grin like it was funny. I didn't know if I should laugh or cry. Tyler is not one of those kids who hits and bites, so obviously he thought it looked like fun. I told him that we don't slap and that he hurt mommy. Then I promptly changed the channel. To tell the truth, I deserved it. I don't know what I was thinking letting him watch the Simpson's. I guess I was having a mommy moment of insanity. Yet another lesson learned form a toddler!
