I thought today would be just another day.
To my "surprise", I entered my children's room this morning to find they had not cleaned their room yesterday like I had asked. Oh wait, I think it may have been their version of clean. Which is clearly NOT my version of clean. So as the little angels were rubbing their tired eyes and having their morning stretch, I took a gander underneath their beds.
This is what I pulled out.
Wait...is that a box of Hamburger Helper, you say? Yes. Indeed it is. I think there is some elbow macaroni in that bag as well.
I feel like I am playing some twisted Where's Waldo game. Now see if you can find the granola bar wrappers? How about the Mario Fruit Snack wrappers? The Sponge Bob golf ball? How about the pencil labeled with a name?
And so this leads to my opening question... Which Mother Are YOU? The type of mother who gives a chuckle and thinks to herself I guess the joke was on me while dotingly cleaning up her sons' bedroom? Or are you the one with the fire under you butt thinking I can't wait until they get home from school so I can watch them clean up this pig stye! (And what exactly is a pig "stye"??) Perhaps some other thoughts come to your mind?
I won't tell you which mother I am. Those of you that know me, know exactly how I'll handle this one.
I would definitely make them clean it :D My boys are still little and I make them clean their toys every night lol meanie!
