Last weekend Harry went to a birthday party (his first of the year). The day before he carefully chose a coloring book for his friend and I added to the present a package of crayons that I had bought earlier during the back to school sales. An hour before the party I hastily wrapped everything and made a quick card (I have oodles of card stock so I tend to make my own cards for things like this). Harry had a fun time, mom not so much (it was super loud).
A few days later I cleared off a pile of junk that was on a side table and noticed a bag with a brand new coloring book in it. Yeah, I had grabbed an old Sesame Street coloring book on accident and wrapped that instead of the new un colored Sesame Street coloring book. I can't even make it right and give the poor little girl the new coloring book because she had moved and I don't have the new address.
It is upon you, my dear readers to help me not feel so bad. Please tell me that I am not the only frazzled mother that has done something like that.

About Me
- Awesome Mom
- Here are a few facts about me: I am married, I have 3 lovely boys and 1 girl: Evan (9), Harry (8), Daniel (4) and Lily (2); I love reading (especially science fiction novels but I do have a wide range of reading interests); I dabble in many different crafts (right now I am into knitting) and I don't floss my teeth every day like I should. My eldest son has a complex heart defect and that has changed my life in so many ways (mostly good).

oh dear!
We all do those frazzled things on occasion!
We have all done that...no worries! I once gave someone a naked Barbie with cutoff hair as A had been "wrapping" along with me...if only she hadn't moved, you mind could be put at ease as you and the other mom laughed about it!!! I am so very sure she knew exactly what had happened!
"Why look at that, little Janey. Harry loved you so much he colored some pictures FOR you!" :)
(Hopefully MOST of them were still uncolored.)
Maybe if you get a thank you card, you can ship the new coloring book to her.
Tee hee! Come on, don't you think it's even a little funny? I would have just laughed my butt off about it and thought about how that other parent must really know how frazzled I was! :)
Oh No! I have done things like that. Don't feel bad.
You're not alone!
I was so excited to volunteer in my daughter's classroom...until I showed up on the wrong day. :-)
whoops! I bet her mom figured out what happened :)
I think you are taking this regifting thing a little too far!
Thanks for the good laugh. We've all made those mistakes oodles of times.
