Worst Mama moment

I feel that I finally had a "I'm the worst Mama ever" moment.  The other evening AJ and I were playing and "chasing" each other.  He was laughing so hard and was having fun.  I went to let the dog out and AJ forgot that I was in the kitchen.  I was standing in the doorway and he came around the corner.  I looked at him and said "boo, AJ".  I didn't jump at him or anything like that. He was soooo scared!  The look on his face was pure fear and he ran from me.  I went right after him and he came to me sort of crying.  He had actually been scared of me.  It is a look that I never would want to see on my son's face again.  I will never forgot the look on his face.  AJ was able to ask for anything that evening and I gave it to him.  I guess that was how I got over the guilt.

I am sure it is not my last "worst Mama ever" moment!
