Karma

Earlier this week, I had to run a bunch of errands in the same area. Normally, I would lug the boys around and pray to God that it went well. Usually, it means stocking my bag with a bunch of goodies, taking Mama Speed (aka coffee), and packing lots of patience and a positive attitude (it works sometimes)! On this particular day, my husband was home, so I could do my errands in peace. I put the baby down for a nap and then prepared for two blissful hours of errand running sans children.  I went to the bathroom before I left and heard my older son come running down the stairs. "I need the bathroom, but Baba is upstairs!" So I yelled at him to use the bathroom in the basement. My husband comes strolling down a minute later, and I told him to go check on Thing 1. He informed me that our son had pooped and went on his way. I finished up and went to check on my son and he told me that he had, in fact pooped, and Baba had disappeared. The basement bathroom was also out of toilet paper. I ran up to the top floor to grab a roll (and search for my MIA husband).  As I passed the upstairs bathroom, I noticed something suspicious. The sliding shower door was closed, and it's normally left open. I found my husband hiding in the shower, trying to escape wiping duty. He was shocked that I found him, and so quickly, he's obviously oblivious to his post shower rituals and habits. I berated him for skipping on wiping and went to take care of my son.

I left the house and a few minutes later got a text from my husband. "The baby's awake." Oh well, I figured his problem, he can deal with it. A few minutes after, "I let him out, we're chilling and hanging out." Okay cool. "Oh my God the baby just diarrhead all over the place!" Followed by "It's a diaper explosion!" I couldn't help but laugh and think, "KARMA!" So I continued with my errands and get another text. "Ummm your son just peed all over the place." Now I was dying, this was flipping hilarious. I began to rush home, then figured, "Ehhh it's his problem, let him deal with it." I finished all my errands, and went on my merry way. I got home and my husband just looked at me and said, "I don't know how you do it." To which I replied, "Isn't karma funny?"
