Omg, yesterday I went WAY outside my comfort zone and I.....
I survived! So, yesterday I took Joshua (almost 14 yr old ds) and Matthew (8 yr old ds) and Joshuas friend to the mall. Joshua forfeited Christmas gifts so his bro would get gifts and still believe in Santa (dh lost his job Dec. 7th so we were broke for gifts). We were waiting for our tax money and Joshua knew we would get him a new ipod as a Christmas/b-day gift, so we had to go to the Apple store at the mall. It was like a 40 min. drive, we hit EVERY red light, once on the freeway it was bumper to bumper traffic, I wanted to cry, but I didnt. Then, the mall was packed, the Apple store was even more packed. Omg! Ugh! Part of the time I felt like I couldnt breathe, but I kept it together with a smile so I didnt ruin it for my kids, theyre used to me spazzing out and having to leave, but I DID IT! The boys had fun and Im happy for that. Im also happy that my anxiety didnt ruin their day. :-)

Congrats Mama! That was very sweet of your son to do that for your younger son too. Not a lot of kids would do that.
