I needed to send in the rebate form for our new washing machine and it needed to be postmarked by yesterday. (The forms have been filled out for 3 weeks. Mailed? No, why would we do that right away?!)
I had all 3 boys in the car after the dump (the fun never ends!) and en route to driving the older 2 to meet their grampy, uncles and cousin to go to the Bruins game. We had to make that post office stop in between. It was cold and windy. We were running a tad late. And getting Seamus in and out of that 5 point harness...always a joy.
Tell me you're thinking what I was: what better time to let Aidan run his first errand solo?!
I gave him his line (This needs a postmark, please) handed him the stamped envelope and pointed to the side of the post office he needed to go. And off he went. He walked right in (and didn't hold the door for an old lady - oops, new lesson time) and got in line to deliver the goods. It took about 2 1/2 minutes. And I only got out to peek once! (Overprotective? Me?)
Here he is, post delivery.
