Just before bedtime…
Me: Where’s Daddy?
Madeline: Doing his little thing after work.
(That is, retreating to the bathroom for a few minutes sans clinging kiddos. It’s the poor man’s only respite when he returns home after a long day of work. I can certainly relate.)
Ha ha! I like this one and the post you linked to. Too funny! I don’t get a few minutes even in the bathroom — we live in an old building, and due to settling our door won’t close firmly, and the lock doesn’t come close to lining up. So I always have visitors in there! The toddler, the cat, and then my husband, belatedly, trying to herd them out. Just when I really want an audience, too!
