One day, she was going to take her son's baseball bag to him for practice after school. (full with a glove, cleats, helmet, clothes, bat, water etc).
She had done it before.
The day before in fact.
She was such a great and amazing person for doing this. The envy of all players I'm sure. He didn't have to carry the bag around everywhere during school that day, since he has no where to put it. *sigh*
A genuinely nice act by this outstanding Mom.
Until she drove to school to deliver the bag...
And when the son went to fetch the bag from the back, figured out that his amazing Mom...forgot the bag.
The bag she was driving to school to deliver.
The only reason she was there.
Apparently she had to relinquish her "Mom of the Year" award she just had received for getting him to the bus stop on time 3 days straight.
I hope this never happens to
