Oh! The joys of motherhood

August 10, 2006

My son is quite talented. Not only is he a proficient roller, but he’s mastered the art of doing two things at once. This morning, I was changing his diaper on the floor. I took the wet diaper off and as I turned to get a dry diaper, my son started to roll. This is where the multitasking began. A steady stream of pee began mid-roll and continued in true sprinkler-like fashion, dousing the floor, crib, ceiling and rocker as my son turned 360 degrees around the nursery. He came to a stop on his stomach on the far wall of the nursery, soaked in pee and giggling. I finally caught up with him just in time for him to do one final roll and squirt me directly in the face. Oh! The joys of motherhood.
