Hide and Please Don’t Seek!

My friend [Hi Faithers!] sent me an e-mail titled The Birth Order of Children.  Have you read it?  It’s funny, and too true.

I remember reading it before I had 3 children, half smiling at it, and passing it on.  This section in particular didn’t make sense to me before. 

At Home:

1st baby: You spend a good bit of every day just gazing at the baby.

2nd baby: You spend a bit of every day watching to be sure your older child isn’t squeezing, poking, or hitting the baby.

3rd baby: You spend a little bit of every day hiding from the children.

I was like, “Why would you hide from your children?”  Now, I know.

Yep, I hide from my children.  Regularly.  Well, I try to, but those little boogers usually find me.

They either find me or I can’t take the guilt of them calling pitieously for me and I come out.

If I’m trying to hide and it gets quiet, I run out of my hiding place.  Quiet means trouble.
