If you Give a Mouse a Cookie - The Parental Version

If you give a Mouse a Cookie.... The Parental Version

** This is a throw-back to last May, when we still had a baby in diapers. BOO-HOO-HOO, I think I have finally hit a point where that makes me sad. **

If you call the boys into the bedroom to get them ready for nap.  You will want to change the little one's diaper.  And while changing his diaper you will realize it is dirty.  After changing the dirty diaper you will have to throw it outside and then wash your hands.  While you are in the garage you will remember that you need to water the bushes that are dying and every second counts even though you were supposed to water them 5 hours earlier at 7 in the morning.  AND, since your hands are currently dirty, no better time than the present.  So, you will go outside to water the bushes. Watering the bushes will make you realize that the replacement patches of grass need watering too.  And sure, the garden too, why not.  After watering the entire yard, you will head back into the house to finally get to washing those hands.  While you are washing you hands, and now feet because they have become disgusting from all the watering in flip-flops, you will call the boys back to the bedroom for nap.  When the boys get back to the bedroom, the youngest will inform you that he is dirty -  again.

And that is why I feel like this at the end of each day.
