MacGyver Parenting

Sometimes parenting requires serious creativity. 

I became the house expert on unlocking bedroom doors with a paperclip. 

My best example of quick thinking came many years prior to that...

We used cloth diapers with both kids. (It's awesome, actually) That meant carrying a pretty full bag (because they take up more space than disposables) at all times. 

We'd decided to eat out in a moment of spontaneity and, of course, the baby needed a change. 

I took him to the car and opened the diaper bag to discover....

...it was empty. 

That's right. Zero diapers. I blinked dumbly at the bag and even did that "open and close in hopes I can suddenly do magic" thing. 

I frantically looked around the car. Maybe I'd dropped one at one point in time. Maybe the heavens would open up and place one in my open hands. 

Then I spotted it!

A thin blanket we used to cover baby toes in the carseat. 

Cloth is cloth, right?

Confession: I've used a tshirt in a pinch. 

It's a small thing, but I commend my sleep deprived brain for being able to think quickly.
