Oh what a moment!

So last Friday I had one of those moments when I thought, I'm not a very good mom I need to pay more attention to my kids. Both kids were downstairs playing and I was upstairs paying bills on the computer. Then I hear Bentley start yelling and crying. Well I didn't even get up, I just thought oh great the kids are fighting again. But then he really started screaming and I knew he must be hurt so I went to investigate. Bentley was coming up the stairs just screaming and rubbing his eye. So I assumed he got something in his eye. I took him in the bathroom and flushed out his eye but he was still yelling. I tried several times to ask him what was in his eye but all he would dp was just scream at me. So finally I asked him to show me. Well he takes me downstairs and gets in a drawer he isn't suppose to be in and pulls out my small can of pepper spray I take jogging with me. He had apparently been playing with it and sprayed himself in the side of the head and then it dripped down into his eyes. Poor kid!



Unluckily for him, I had to strip him down and put him in the shower to try and get it all off. Its pretty nasty stuff and I could instantly see where it had touched his face as one side had turned a bright red. Poor guy took a short nap and then felt better but it gave me a good scare to! Not the kind of scare I wanted for Halloween though.
