Why I love Treehouse

Making lunch with no cartoons on:

-give them a pb sandwich to tide them over while I make it

-they start to fight

-I turn the corner to see what's going on - peanut butter smeared into the couch

-give them a wet cloth to wipe it up

-they wipe it, then start wiping other things. Peanut butter is now on the wall and T's hair.

-Portland wakes up from the yells of the fight, I go upstairs to get her

-change her diaper

-bring her downstairs

-the kids have brought out the bag of flour and are throwing handfulls of it at each others feet

-I put the flour away, tell them to go play with their toys

-Tehilah immediately falls on the floor crying because she can't find her Thomas book

-I go try to find it, can't...she is still crying

-Ben plays quietly throwing his cars off the table, Tehilah thinks this is funny

-Portland starts crying to be fed

-serve undercooked noodles with canned peas and tomatoes.

Making lunch with cartoons on:

-hold Portland in one hand

-give them a pb sandwich to hold them over while I make it

*silence*

-possibly finish my coffee

-serve a lunch that even I am excited to eat

-possibly eat it

So, yeah..
