So today when the three of them followed me to the bathroom it occurred to me that there was a time in my life that I used to go to the bathroom alone, in fact there are a lot of things I did at one point and time without an audience. Do not get me wrong, I have gone to the bathroom alone since the kids were born, but for the most part when that happens they are not with me for one reason or another. I guess most moms come to this realization at one point in time. For some reason it dawned on me to day that I no longer get the privacy I once had in the rest room.
It really is the small things in life, that is once you become a mom, that you give up or no longer do. So maybe the next time I find myself in the bathroom alone. I may just stay in there a little longer, take a book with me, escape so to speak from the world outside.
Being a mom of multiples has been a rewarding challenge over the years, but even with the lose of privacy I would not trade it for anything. I would however, like to know when they will no longer feel the need to go in the bathroom with me. Anyone know the answer to this..
the things we wonder.
I could not help but laugh at this. I know what you mean and what you are saying. The simple things in life. To be alone for once.
