I was
sitting on the shitter after sneaking in the garage after work, minding
my own business and trying to DO my business when I heard a shocked
Tween yell "You can't say that!" to Little Shit who immediately burst
into tears complete with uncontrollable sobbing. Then I heard the Tween
trying to shush her only for the volume of sobbing to increase to an
uncomfortable level - like a goddamned siren.
Fuck me. My peaceful, toilet clogging shit needed to be put on hold.
Like a responsible mom I pinched the loaf and headed into the living
room to determine what the problem was.
All hell was breaking
loose when I interrupted. After shutting everyone up I asked the Tween
what the problem was. "SHE said a VERY VERY bad word!" The Tween accused
and crossed her arms smugly waiting for me to flip my shit. I looked at
Little Shit who was glaring daggers at her older sister and looking
like she wanted to rip her head off and crap down her throat. Whoa! My
toddler looked E-V-I-L. After some coaxing Little Shit finally told me
what went down.
"Tween said we were going outside to play on
the swing set but she wouldn't go outside because she was playing her
iPad. I kept asking really nice, mommy. I asked really nice." Cue the
big eyes tearing up from Little Shit and an exasperated sigh from the
Tween. "So I told her we needed to go and tried to grab her iPad and she
pushed me so I grabbed her and said..." at this pout Little Shit juts
her chin out and stands her ground like zero fucks are given "let's
fucking go!" At the look on my face Little Shit's zero fucks attitude
falters..."is that bad mommy? I heard you tell daddy that earlier."
I'm in my room now with a bottle of wine and a straw, coping with the circus I live.
