Mom's Claws

I think I am pretty easy going most of the time. I bite my tongue often when I don't agree with someone and pretty much don't let too much get at me when I get grated on about something.

I have been trained to let insults just slide. Since I worked in a jail, they got thrown at me every 30 minutes during walks and when I was at the police department, every time I arrested someone. No biggie to me. Until...

Someone insults my children needlessly. I am amazed at how vicious I became when all three of my kids were called an un~warranted, nasty name, by a nasty person this weekend. I use the word nasty since I would never post the kind of words I actually used on our blog. I definitely did not expect the claws to come out the way they did but look out...... I could have drawn blood with my words. I almost feel guilty at the vile things I said and the way, in which I said them.......ALMOST.......but not quite!
