It's unusual if I get to use the restroom alone. I've come to resent it actually. Until this morning.
In my bathroom a little shelf sits across from the abode. It seems my children like to corner me during these times to just sit, ask questions, and bug. So, this morning when I woke up, Caleb and I went into the bathroom. Our usual routine occurred. He has to go sooooooooo badly, so he goes first. Then I go and he sits and talks with me. I think, "I wish I could just pee in peace."
But, today was different. He left the bathroom. Geez, prayers answered. Then, he comes back and looks around the doorway.
"Ah, mom, can I go downstairs?"
"Sure, Daddy's down there with Conrad."
"Are you sure?"
"Um, yes, I'm very sure."
"You're not going to feel alone?"
"No, I'll be ok."
All this time, I thought they saw my private time as an opportunity to get my attention, but it's because he thinks I'll be lonely. Sweetheart.
Today's prayer: "Thank you for those around me that care about me and forgive me for thinking they just bug."
