After today, I've pretty much determined the following things must be present in my home when I myself am a mother.
-Coffee with lots of caffeine
-Wipes that will easily clean up a child &/or any messes they might make on say a table or the floor
-A handheld vacuum
-Wood floors
-A foot masseuse
-Children willing to do child labor
-Bribery
-A small amount of voice raising/threatening
-Short nails
-No family members living within eye sight
My reasoning:
- Coffee: Self explanatory. I don't think I would have made it from 7:45 am - 6:15 pm without my Pumpkin Spice Latte today.
- Wipes: How much easier life would be, had I had a wipe that I could clean up with, and then pull another wipe out of the same packet and clean up the mess that was just made.
- A handheld vacuum-would make mess clean up that much easier
- A foot masseuse - After standing on my feet for most of the morning baking cookies, frosting cookies, keeping kids on task, going upstairs, downstairs & back, & whatever else...my dogs were aching around 3:00.
