Writer's Workshop - Wrong

Something you were wrong about.

I have spent a lot of time

thinking about this prompt.

And I mean a lot of time.

I think I finally came up with a story to share.

However,

I do not believe I was wrong.

I was mistaken.

Forgetful.

Confused.

Irritated.

But not wrong!

Ethan has an iTouch.

And now that he's learning to

read and write,

he's taken full ownership of his iTouch.

He's deleted songs

he once wanted,

and apps

he had begged for.

He even created folders for all his apps

and organised them in a way

that makes sense to him.

And him only.

He even downloaded YouTube

and started 

watching videos.

But as his spelling

is still a work in progress,

I've worried about him watching something

inappropriate.

So I took action!

I disabled the apps store on his iTouch.

This would prevent him from 

deleting anything without

first asking.

It also prevents him from adding

new apps

without my approval.

Somewhere,

between disabling it

and syncing it yesterday,

I forgot about this.

I recently purchased a few new apps

that I thought Ethan would like.

I decided it was time to sync his iTouch

to my computer.

It's been forever since I had last done it.

As I'm doing this,

I'm noticing the new apps are not loading.

And I can't figure out why.

And then I notice it.

The app store is GONE!

OMG!!!!

Ethan, did you delete the app store?

Are you sure?

Maybe when you were moving apps around

you accidentally deleted it?

Ethan you need to be more careful!

Yes, I blamed my child

(wait - this is not a bad mommy post

let's get back to topic).

I just couldn't

for the life of me figure out

what went wrong.

Suddenly it dawned on me....

It was not a what

but a who.

I was wrong!

It wasn't Ethan that deleted it.

It was I that disabled it!

Well,

I fixed it.

And so,

this does not make me wrong,

just in error!
