The Joys of Parenthood

Yesterday morning I was sound asleep and nestled all cozy in my cocoon of blankets. I was so deep in sleep that I didn't wake up when my older son (OS) came in my room. I heard him say "Mommy, look!" I immediately rolled over only to have a piece of used toilet paper shoved in my face. "I'm wiping!" OS announced and then proceeded to take another swipe at himself. OS has been wiping himself since December. I'm not sure why there was need for the fanfare. More importantly, I'm not sure why this needed to happen in my room at all, much less directly in front of my face! I'm definitely writing down this event to keep track for next Mother's Day.
