house call?

If you visit my house you might...

have to move the potty seat off the toilet to do your business.
be informed (while doing your business) that closing the door is not allowed (be assured it is).
trip on a doll stroller or two.
be informed (loudly) that someone ('s) needs to poop or pee.
be interrupted every second.
have to get used to a loud level of noise.
not have control of the t.v. or the computer (for that matter).
have to scale a baby gate to get upstairs or into my formal rooms (which are still filled with stuff from my basement).
not be allowed in my laundry room.
need to drag your chair from its climbing spot by the counter- if you like to sit.
use a paper cup we use paper cups around here (sorry for the waste).
have to unlock the water on the fridge to get that drink- its not safe to have that available to just anyone...
have to ask me if you need a pen or a pair of scissors, those are hidden (even sometimes from myself).
notice paper is hard to keep in stock it all used up from book making and picture drawing.
not want to leave your keys down they might get picked up.
learn a lot about princess dresses and their accessories.
learn why silence is not always golden. It usually means something bad is happening around here.

On the upside - kisses, hugs and general sweetness are often given without provocation. Cuteness counts for a lot too.
