No one ever warned me before I had kids, how mentally exhausting it would be. Where was that bit of advice during my four baby showers? Yes, I admit it, quite often when my kids are chattering like a bunch of wild parakeets, I push the ignore button. Cmon’ ladies, you moms know exactly what I’m talking about. The ignore button is a safety mechanism that all mothers receive after giving birth.
I made the mistake of paying close attention to what my children were saying the other day. I thought I would share a few snippets of what I heard.
“Whose spoon is in the bathtub?”
“Don’t burp in my face!”
“What if Dad were small enough to fit in the grooves under my shoes?”
“Why is there an orange in my purse?”
“When smoke starts coming out of that hole, turn it off.”
Pardon me, while I hit the ignore button and go back to my happy place.
