This is what happens when my partner Alan is taking the kids out for a day trip by himself;
Me: Do you have the changing bag?
Him: Yes.
Me: Do you have nappies in it, wipes, a few snacks, the bottle and blanket?
Him: Some, but not all of that.
Me: Did you get Jacob to do a wee before putting him in the car?
Him: He’ll be grand.
Me: That statement is the rock you will perish on.
You know, he just forgets stuff here and there. He doesn’t have the mammy OCD running mental list that I have, the one that anticipates most potential upcoming disasters – mostly because I’ve already been that soldier who forgot the damn baby wipes.
But this Dublin dad has trumped quite a few other dad’s forgetful moments, if his wife’s Facebook post is anything to go by.
At least he arrived home with the kids, right?!
