If you had asked me a few nights ago (or about a month ago) if I loved having kids,
I may have thrown something sharp and heavy in the general direction of your
head. Or something wiggly and squishy. Something that looked like a toddler. A
toddler who woke up every 90 minutes screaming for her “taggie” that was hiding
somewhere in the midst of the chaos that is our house.
But, on most days, I will be able to answer without the use
of projectiles. Sure, as I sit in the bathroom with four fists pounding on the
door and 2 squeaky voices screaming, “Mama! Mama! Mama!” I wish I could be like
Tracy Jordan in 30 Rock and have a standing semiweekly hotel reservation for
one hour to be able “to poop in peace!” Sure, it’s frustrating that 8 of my
waking hours are spent sitting on the bathroom floor waiting for someone to
poop, wiping someone’s poop or spraying someone’s poop off a diaper. Sure, it
would be nice if the only poop I had to wipe was my own. (Can you tell that Madeline is potty
training and my world seems full of poop?)
