The Children
Serenity Now
I wish I could walk into my bathroom, brush my teeth, or pee, or put on makeup without a person (or persons) under 4 foot tall feeling the need to accompany me. I mean, is that too much to ask? Sometimes I close the bathroom door, lock it, and slide the hot water heater up against the door. Even then….
::banging on bathroom door::
“Mom! Maaaaaaaaooooooommmmm!”
::not answering::
“Hey! Mom!”
::still not answering::
“MOMMMMMYYYYY!”
“Go away!”
“But, Mom!”
“Just give me a minute! When I get out of the bathroom, you can tell me what you need.”
“I need to ask you a question!”
“Can it wait till I’m out of the bathroom?”
“Hey, Mom!”
“Whaaaaaat?”
“Can you hear me?”
::smoke starts coming from my ears:: “Yes. I can hear you.”
“I need to ask you a question.”
::defeated:: “What’s your question?”
“What are you doing in there?”

HA! Funny. You can just WEAR a serenity (pad) and not have to go to the bathroom!
You can always lie to the kids and tell them you are rigging up something that will make them eat their vegetables or something that monitors how good they’ve been and you’re just checking the meter. If they make noise, it just makes it worse, so they’d better be reallll quiet so you can adjust it.
my sister is so smart, its scary.
