Top 5 Reasons to Interrupt Your Mother in the Shower

I've noticed this week, that kids have naked radar.  They don't need you until you are changing your clothes or showering.  Mine will ignore me all morning and drag around getting ready at a snail's pace, but as soon as I take my 10 minutes to shower before I drive them to school, they are on me like stink on a skunk. 

This is a problem because it has been pretty cold lately, and as soon as I get my tiny, avacado green one person shower all sealed up and warm, someone comes into the bathroom and says, "mwah, mwah, mwah."  I can't hear inside the shower, so they just sound like Charlie Brown's teacher, and I have to open the curtain to get their urgent message. 

Here's the top 5 urgent messages I have recieved in the past month:

5.  Can I wear this? (usually not, but at least they dress themselves)
4.  Where's the brush? (I don't know, you're the one who has hair, not me)
3.  Will you fix my hair? with brush and hair band outstretched (sure, climb in.  seriously, you must know that I can't fix your hair while I'm in the shower)
2.  Will you sign my paper?  with pen and paper outstretched.  (see above note - and, might I add, I don't sign papers when I'm naked, this is just wierd.)
And, the number one desperate situation that prompted my children to interrupt my nice, warm shower is....
1.  The cream cheese is moldy. (no comment)

Okay, Moms, now it's your turn.  Do your kids have "naked radar" and bug you in the shower?  Post a comment with your hilarious shower interruptions.

  1. That's funny! I do get some funny bed time stalling. My kids always has some breaking news they have to tell me after they have gone to bed. Of course, it can never wait until morning. : )
