Being a parent is the most exciting job ever. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t come with a few umm “job pet peeves.” What are yours?
1. Repeating myself. How many times do I have to say it?! (Including the husband on this one.)
2. People or kids pretending they don’t hear you. I always test my kids by saying “cupcake,” then pointing out that they heard that.
3. Errands. Enough said.
4. Stickiness. Anywhere.
5. Scratched DVD’s when ONLY that DVD will do.
6. Whining, oh the whining.
7. Stepping on crumbs in every room of your house.
8. Bathing kids, then watching them rub a popsicle on themselves.
9. Mopping the floors, then watching them drop the popsicle on the clean floors.
10. Watching your husband drop a popsicle on the floor.
The flip side of course is that your children melt you. They leave you in a puddle like a popsicle on a clean floor. Simply looking at your kids can break you down into a sniffly mess of emotions. All of the pet peeves in the world mean nothing when they smile.
CRUMBS!!!
