How It Sometimes Is
How is it at our house? This is how it sometimes is, lately.
Aimee: [Sitting on the couch, calling upstairs] Joel? Can you help me?
Joel: [In the bathroom, calling downstairs] Adelaide's painting my toes, what do you need?
Aimee: I'm nursing Henry and I can't reach my book.
Adelaide: [Also in the bathroom, calling downstairs] I'm giving papa's toes some Cinderella paint!
Aimee: Can you just hand me my book?
Joel: Could you just take a moment to savor the special connection you're sharing with Henry, a bond the likes of which I'll never be able to experience?
Aimee: [pause] Well, I'll just pick at his head.

But why get your own book if your hubs is there to do it for you? This is hilarious! You could have asked Adelaide to do it for you and in exchange allowed her to paint Henry's toes. Whaddya think?
