This weekend Liam had a soccer tournament in Sandpoint Idaho. Sandpoint is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!On the way home from our crazy, soccer-filled weekend, we decide to treat ourselves to Red Lobster. We've never been and have great expectations. Well...
...you know how that goes.
We are not off to a good start, as the couple being seated in front of us, when asked their seating preference, say with snotty looks cast in our direction, "We would not like to be seated by children." I am offended. Our kids are being good. Really good. No screaming. No whining. Quietly, politely waiting our turn.
What is the deal with people like that?!?
So, I am feeling protective of our kids and cranky at this woman. Clark appears nervous. The kids are totally missing the boat.
When asked our seating preference, I quip, as I hold Sylvie-Aganoti and am surrounded by a variety of young boys, "We would not like to be seated by children."
Funny, right?
Nope.
Turns out, we have a different hostess than the one who seated the snotty couple. Turns out, our hostess might think I am saying Clark and I would like to not sit by our own children. Turns out, she also might think I am asking her to watch our children while we enjoy lobster.
Plus, the kids are wondering why I suddenly do not want to sit with them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Embarrassing.
Totally, totally embarrassing.
Have I mentioned that I've been asked to consider teaching some parenting classes in Missoula?
I am sure you are racing each other to sign up right now!

haha... dork... sorry. sounds like something I would do. Really.
Well I thought it was funny! I get that all the time when I take my three young boys out to eat. I will be the first to admit, their a little on the loud side but hey.
Snort! That totally cracked me up, thanks :D
Snooty people are the pits.
Crystal, It's totally something I would do! And then be embaressed of course! I rarely, if ever come across people that grouchy, but when I do it really ticks me off.
