So let me tell you what my bliss is.
The boy is home red-eyed and fevered on the couch resting. The girl has just announced that she has peed on the floor in her bedroom (for the 3rd time today). I get a rag and the carpet cleaner and go to inspect the damage, and right about this point, a thought pops into my head,
"Gee, I think I forgot to close the bathroom door after retrieving the cleaner".
Knowing my 14-month old, I leave the urine puddle on the carpet and rush to the bathroom, just in time to see the smallish boy "dunking" his goldfish in the unflushed toilet and popping them in his mouth.
YUM YUM.
Who doesn't want some urine-soggy crackers for a snack? I wash the smallish boys hands and resume the job of the puddle in the girl's room. I'm sure that many more things happened immediately following this but I think I went brain-dead for the next hour. (And now you're all very reassured of my super parenting skills at this point.)
At any rate my bliss after a day like this is BEDTIME.
My kids sure look adorable when they sleep.
I'll be sure to put some pics on soon. They are currently not accessible and I'm too lazy right now to switch computers.
Have a good one and remember to pace yourselves on the soggy fishies!

Cousin. You should win a prize.
LOL!! You just made my night!! That was awesome! You, Kara, are quite the writer! And....the funny thing is....is that it is NOT fiction! lol! You are so funny and yes, I do know how it is. But, it gets better....or just different...as they get older. Jayme is going into the 8th grade next year. Crazy! And..Trey will be in 3rd grade! We don't have puddles of urine anymore on our carpet...but there are other joys that make you go brain dead still!!!
That was way good. Made me appreciate my little sleeping one so bad. btw, congrats on the baby...i guess;)
if you need more hand, i m willing to give you one for transplant. Poor ur brain. maybe you should just take it out and let it rest for a while! Good luck!!
Ha ha ha that's awesome! Sorry for you, but really, that's too funny. Your kids are hilarious, and yes you do have sweet parenting skills, I promise!
Those are my awesome grandchildren. They just don't come any better or come any cuter. Not to mention their awesome mother and father. They do come cuter (just look at my grandchildren) I love you all.
