You Do What You Have To Do

In order to go to the bathroom this morning, I agreed with Brennan that I was, indeed, Princess Leia and I needed to be rescued from the clutches of evil Jabba (Griffin) by Luke Skywalker (Brennan.)

The whole imaginary rescue scene played out in the master bathroom while I sat on the toilet. Good times, eh?

In order to clean the showers, bathtubs and toilets later that morning, I agreed to affix Aidan's glow in the dark, neon rosary to my head as my princess crown. I was a poor Princess captured by Pirates who would be rescued by a team of commanders (Brennan in a firefighter hat and Griffin in a construction hat - both with capes and wielding plastic swords.) (Thankfully, the evil pirates still allowed me to clean during the tense stand off and rescue.)

Yeah, you do what you have to do in parenthood to get things done.
