A Question for God

I believe that there is an afterlife and that when I die I will be able to have answers to the things that puzzle me while I’m here. So, yesterday in the midst of getting things ready for having some pictures taken, I had to wonder about this;

Why do parents have to use the bathroom? It seems like some sort of flaw in the whole parenting system that we have to, from time-to-time, walk into another room, shut the door and leave the children to their own devices. I know it’s only for a moment sometimes, but whether you’re running in and running out or you’re in there for 3 minutes, what’s going on in the rest of the house is always the same!…….Sheer mayhem!

Let’s take yesterday as an example;
I walked through the kitchen and noticed water, shooting in the air, outside the kitchen window. After a moment of thinking nothing of it, I realized it meant that someone was outside, with the water turned on, shooting it in the air. It ended up being Luke-Xavier. So, I brought him in, turned off the water and shut the door. Then I headed to the bathroom. Mere moments after shutting the door, I could hear Maddi yelling down the hall. So, I ran out of the bathroom to see what the emergency was……..front door thrown open, entry way soaking wet, 4 children outside, 3 of them stripped down to either total nudity or just underwear and the 4th had gone to get the boogie boards!

Seriously! I’m thinking that God overlooked the idea that once you become a parent, you should never again have to use the bathroom.

Have a great day~
