My Morning

I got in the shower at my normal time and within 2 minutes there is a knock on the door.

Me: Yes. Come in.

Spirit: I want breakfast.

Me: I will get it for you when I am out of the shower.

Spirit: But I am hungry right now.

Me: You will have to wait for me because you can not pour the milk by yourself or reach the bowls.

Spirit: Ok.

Approximately 1.5 minutes goes by and there is another knock on the door.

Me: Yes. Come on in.

Lefty: Can you help me get dressed?

Me: Well, obviously not right this second, but after my shower I can.

Spirit comes running in: BUT maaahhhhmmm You said you'd help ME get breakfast after your shower.

Me: Here's the deal. I need to finish my shower, get dressed and then I will get breakfast on the table and then I will help anyone who needs help getting dressed.

Spirit: Fine. *sighs*

Lefty: ok. whatever.

Approximately another minute or two goes by and there is .... yep, you guessed it ... another knock on the door.

Me: Come in.

Lady Bug: I wanna sits on yours bed.

Me: Go ahead.

Lady Bug: No! All by mys-self.

Me: Are the boys on my bed?

Lady Bug: Yeeesssss.

Me: My bed is big enough for all of you.

Lady Bug: NO! Mys bed.

Me: Well, I'm sorry but you will just have to share the bed with your brothers.

Lady Bug: ahhhhh.

The door shuts and I seriously consider locking it!!!!!

Why is that I can not just take a simple 10 minute shower ALONE????? Mr. Man fusses at me sometimes for letting the kids watch TV in the mornings.....but I can not get ready without PBS.
