i have sooooo much to say...

and yet i'm tonguetied all at the same time...

Michael Jackson's contribution to the world was CRUCIAL in forming who I am today.

I may be the ONLY PERSON on the planet that got where he was coming from when he talked about sharing the love... extending a bed to those without one... it wasn't about sex or anything perverted or anything devious... it was about recognizing that there are so many with less than nothing and being one with SO MUCH to share with them... he gave the world so much and still the world asked for more and speculated about things that our shameful society didn't understand...

For me the bottomline... he was an artist... sometimes it was a blessing... sometimes a curse beyond all curses... he was in fact as so many before me have said... MAGIC

'...everyone's taking control of me
seems that the world's got a role for me
I'm so confused will you show to me
will you be there for me
and care enough to bear me...' ~ Will You Be There... Michael Jackson

and it's really only Wednesday

sooo to catch those of you up that don't follow my mess on twitter...

I get to daycare facility on Monday to pick up Frodo (read Jake... however remember the previously blogged about forest incident ~ ok you see where I'm going then!)... they take the little tag that is supposed to ensure no one picks him up... he is where he is supposed to be safely locked away until he is released into the loving care of well... ME. I'm waiting and waiting as my son has 2 speeds ~ slow and slower!

He arrives... and is standing next to a police office ~ I joke 'You're not with him are you?' ~ officer 'Are you Jake's mom?'

YEAH... NICE right...

So Frodo was not happy with another child at daycare and knowing that inflicting bodily harm would NOT fare him well... he decided to pack up his coloring... grab his back pack and walk home.

Let me explain ~ Daycare is on east side of the major N/S interstate... the VERY NICE Officer picked my child up on the west side of the majoy N/S interstate and one exit South (closer to our home... he does in fact know how to get home from daycare!)

Yes ~ every possible emotion one can feel in the matter of 10 minutes I had... some I didn't even know you could have!!!

He is fine because as he pointed out... he stayed on the grass the entire time! In fact, he's rather puzzled as to what he did that was so wrong. Well Frodo, there are a whole slew of awful people that could have picked you up and tried to make you their own ~ 'Mom, I left daycare, I would leave them too... I'm ALWAYS going to be with you!!!'

The police officer was extremely nice and puzzled why my fearless, independent child was not afraid of walking along a major freeway but seemed terrified of a police officer ~ OOPS... The Daycare facility is now being investigated by the state ~ I did what I don't do and marched in there and said "ummmmm yeah he shouldn't have left ~ but really y'all were supposed to be watching and he walked right out the front door ~ wtf!!!" I was a bit more eloquent than that and there were a lot more tears.

Fun Times... ugh
