My father used to always say "if Benjy hasn't broken anything it's not Benjy".
Even my friends when I was growing up were at the pub would all breath easier after I'd spilt my beer.
Once a klutz.... And all that.
This week Joshie was being a grown up carrying the laptop to me. He accidentally dropped it. It broke. I, just like my father, overreacted. I was cross. But he was super hard on himself. It was an accident. He was trying to be helpful.
I felt really bad that I reacted like that. I said sorry. I always swore when my Father judged and belittled me time and time again that I wouldn't do the same for my children. I failed.
I said sorry and he said its ok Papa, I forgive you.
Today we went to the Genius Bar and got it fixed. We had a great time and thank you son for forgiving me.
