You know those moments when you feel like for just a few seconds in time you were an awesome mom? This doesn't happen very often for me....mostly I feel like a really super okay mom. But occasionally, I have a moment of Mom awesomeness. A moment where I feel like I own this whole being a mom thing. Fortunately, the real world is there to kick me in the teeth before I get too full of myself, but these moments do exist.
Last night during bath time I had one of those moments. I put the girls in the tub, got them the appropriate number of bath toys (at my house this is roughly fifty million), washed their hair, and then proceeded to sweep, mop, Lysol, dump trash, and clean the entire bathroom while they happily enjoyed their playtime.
I even was so productive during that fifteen minutes that I was able to snap some pictures of my little girls splashing around.
Not to worry. This moment of Mom Awesomeness lasted just as long as bath time. After which both of the girls threw fits while getting their pajamas put on, screamed while getting their hair brushed, and sulked as they were put to bed. We were obviously back to our normal scheduled programming.
